He separated his opponent from his senses with a punch-perfect left hook that is so good it should be replayed again and again.Watch the one-punch finish right here:<blockquote class="twitter-tweet blockquote" data-lang="en" data-cards="" data-conversation="">—UFC FIGHT PASS (@UFCFightPass) <a href="https://twitter.com/mims/statuses/1490475476531519488">February 7, 2022</a></blockquote>Victory advanced Butler's pro <keyword id="11922276" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="mma" source="Orion">MMA</keyword> record to 11 wins (one knockout, eight submissions, and two decisions) against four losses.But his win was not the only headline-grabbing moment of the night, as there was great pandemonium across the show.In the seventh bout of the night, Dean Freire rebounded from his first loss by sending Victor Gonzalez to the shadow realm in a matter of seconds.The finish was scored so fast that the round clock barely had any time to get featured on the screen.Freire, with a hurtful right over the top, clattered Gonzalez at the nine-second mark, with the official announcement calling it a 12-second knockout.Watch the lightning-quick knockout right here:<blockquote class="twitter-tweet blockquote" data-lang="en" data-cards="" data-conversation="">—caposa (@Grabaka_Hitman) <a href="https://twitter.com/mims/statuses/1490484194228776962">February 7, 2022</a></blockquote>Victory advanced Freire's fledgling career to two wins (two knockouts) against one loss.The Fury FC promotion is headquartered in Humble, Texas, and returned for its 57th numbered show February 11.It holds shows every two weeks, with Fury FC 58 scheduled for February 27, and Fury FC 59 scheduled to March 11.

Fans have every right to demonstrate, but attitudes like this, with invasion and threats, harm the team and the projects that are underway."The club added that it was now working with police to ensure "appropriate" action is taken against those responsible. Following Botafogo's statement, the Young Fury of Botafogo tweeted to say it was granted entry to the club's premises by club employees. "All players, staff, and managers stopped their car to talk to us willingly, none were forced to do anything," <a href="https://twitter.com/FuriaOficial01/status/1537167197642100738">said the fan group.</a> "There was no violence, depredation, or any kind of threat or intimidation to any person."Botafogo is the former home of a number of Brazil's greatest ever players, including many of those in the country's World Cup winning squads in 1958, 1968, and 1970, such as Garrincha and Jairzinho.However, it has faced serious financial troubles in the past two decades, leading to its being relegated from Serie A on three occasions.In January, Botafogo's board voted to sell the club to the American businessman John Textor, who also co-owns the English Premier League team Crystal Palace FC.

He has an extraordinary burst of pace, is incredibly strong, and is dominant in the air. Ronaldo is best known for scoring incredible goals from all angles - bullet-like headers from close range, long-distance howitzers, and from dead ball scenarios like free kicks and penalties.Messi is shorter and less physically imposing than Ronaldo, but has great agility and can seemingly change direction, quickly, at will. He is an expert dribbler of the football, a creative forward, and is lethal in front of goal. Messi is regarded as a soccer magician who casts spells on opponents and beguiles audiences and media alike.<h2>But who is the best? </h2>That is a question that is constantly up for debate, but one area where the case must now be closed is performance in the big games on the grandest of stages.It was a point recently raised by soccer expert Tom Adams, deputy managing editor at Eurosport, who tweeted that Messi's record in "the biggest competitions compared to Ronaldo's is looking very shoddy."<h2>The stats show the winner is clear</h2>The last time Messi scored a UEFA Champions League goal in the quarterfinal stage or later was in 2015, when he struck twice in his side's 3-0 semifinal win over Bayern Munich. Since then, he has failed to score in the latter stages (quarterfinal or later).Ronaldo, since Messi's two goals against Bayern that year, has scored 11 quarterfinal goals, three semifinal goals, and two goals in the final.However, this season alone, Messi has created two goals and scored six in 10 Champions League appearances. This is an attacking efficiency of a goal scored or created once for every 97 minutes he has been on the pitch.Messi's strike rate in Europe is impressive, yes - but not when you compare him to Ronaldo.Ronaldo has created three goals and scored 15 in 10 Champions League outings. That's an attacking efficiency of a goal scored or created once for every 50 minutes he has been on the pitch.In European competition, Ronaldo has been twice as productive as Messi has this season.There is no argument to be had - wWhen it comes to the latter stages of their careers, it is Ronaldo and Ronaldo alone who has been excelling in the big games on the grandest of stages.<h2>Ronaldo is King</h2><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/5ad089ed146e7121008b47a7-2000/cristiano%20ronaldo.jpg" border="0" alt="Cristiano Ronaldo" data-mce-source="Reuters">ReutersCristiano Ronaldo.</img></div></div></div>Just last week, Ronaldo's jaw-dropping overhead bicycle kick could see him get crowned with the goal of the season award. It was a highlight-reel strike that required excellent gymnastics, athleticism, bodily coordination, timing, ingenuity, and execution.To really appreciate the goal, just watch it yourself:Here's another version, depending on your location:The goal, as you can see, is one to remember. But what made it all the more extraordinary was that it was struck in the first leg of Real Madrid's quarterfinal Champions League clash against Juventus. It was was the second of two goals he scored that night in Italy to help his club on its way to the Champions League semifinal thanks to a superb 3-0 win.That whole week, the whole buzz in sports pages across the world was how good Ronaldo was. In the second leg, Real squandered its three goal cushion and allowed Juventus back into the game, but in the closing moments Ronaldo stepped up and broke Juve's hearts by rifling in a penalty kick.Real won by a 4-3 aggregate score and has its sights on a third successive Champions League title - all because of Ronaldo.But what about Messi?Messi messed up on the big stage, as his goals were nowhere to be found when FC Barcelona needed him the most.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/5ad0b003146e712d008b4819-2000/lionel%20messi.jpg" border="0" alt="Lionel Messi" data-mce-source="Getty Images">Getty ImagesLionel Messi.</img></div></div></div>Barcelona had beaten AS Roma 4-1 in the first leg of its Champions League quarterfinal match last week. But Roma fought back with an unmatched fury on Tuesday, beating Barca 3-0 on the night and squeaking through to the semis thanks to an away goal victory on a 4-4 aggregate score.Roma had knocked Barcelona out - but the story would have been so different had Messi managed to grab the game by the scruff of the neck and score. He failed to do so, missed a golden opportunity to score from close range in the 86th minute, and Barcelona got knocked out of the tournament.Messi is a once-in-a-generation type player and, like Eurosport's editor Adams noted earlier, he may well be "the better player."But, while Messi fails on the big stage, it is Ronaldo who succeeds - that much is clear.<div><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en">Still think Messi is the better player by quite a way, but his record in the biggest competitions compared to Ronaldo's in the latter stages of their career is looking very shoddy- Tom Adams (@tomEurosport) <a href="https://twitter.com/mims/statuses/983807220533121024?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 10, 2018</a></blockquote><script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div><div><blockquote class="twitter-video" data-lang="en">Every angle of Cristiano Ronaldo's crazy goal against Juventus 👌 We could watch this over and over and over again... 😍 <a href="https://t.co/XRSdqTNuMT">pic.twitter.com/XRSdqTNuMT</a>- Football on BT Sport (@btsportfootball) <a href="https://twitter.com/btsportfootball/status/981448743408070656?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 4, 2018</a></blockquote><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div><div><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en">OH MY RONALDO 😯<a href="https://t.co/RKh83FknT9">pic.twitter.com/RKh83FknT9</a>- Sporting News (@sportingnews) <a href="https://twitter.com/mims/statuses/981263307612016647?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 3, 2018</a></blockquote><script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div> <div class="margin-top"> <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/neuroscientist-explains-why-reality-hallucination-meaning-2018-3">A neuroscientist explains why reality may just be a hallucination</a></h3> <div> <iframe class="bijwplayerclass" data-player="jwplayer" src="https://content.jwplatform.com/players/uL4qMkar-CEZHWCBG.html" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0" scrolling="auto" style="margin:0px;" allowfullscreen=""></iframe><script>function receiveMessage(event){ console.log(event.data.fullscreen); Android.fullscreen(event.data.fullscreen); }window.addEventListener("message", receiveMessage, false);</script> </div> </div></hr>
