Rinat Fakhretdinov spoiled former UFC interim lightweight title challenger Kevin Lee’s return to the promotion.

In the feature prelim of UFC on ESPN 47 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Fakhretdinov rocked, dropped, and then choked Lee unconscious in the first round. It was a flawless performance for Fakhretdinov, who made a massive statement against a well-known fighter in Lee.

Unfortunately for Lee, his return to the UFC could not have gone worse after a one-fight stint outside of the promotion.

Check out the reaction on social media to the fight and the finish below:
