Adrian Yanez flips off Tony Kelley after brutal knockout at UFC Austin

UFC star Adrian Yanez flipped off Tony Kelley after knocking him out to bring an end to their rivalry on Saturday night.

While the UFC Austin card as a whole was absolutely electric this past weekend, there was an extra level of intrigue behind the showdown between Adrian Yanez and Tony Kelley. 

The latter of the two had been making headlines for weeks after making disparaging remarks about Brazilians when cornering his partner Andrea Lee last month. When asked about the issue in subsequent interviews he tried to make it clear that he wasn’t trying to be offensive, but his ‘apology’ didn’t seem to do much to mend any fences.

A lot of fighters made it known to Yanez ahead of their Texas showdown that they wanted to see the 28-year-old knock him out, even more so after Kelley had missed weight and flipped off the camera during his pre-fight introduction.

In the end, Kelley didn’t even make it out of the first round as Yanez absolutely butchered him before sending two middle fingers straight back to his opponent.
