UFC wasted no time signing a Cuban fighter who knocked out his opponent in less than five seconds at Fury FC 84 on Sunday. 

Robelis "The Bad Boy" Despaigne certainly made his impression with UFC president Dana White and the rest of the organization when he knocked out Miles Banks in four seconds. 

The 6-foot-7 Despaigne, who has won an Olympic medal in taekwondo for Cuba, stepped up to Banks and delivered a kick to his side before swinging a right fist that landed on Banks’ head.

Banks immediately hit the canvas, and the referee was quick to stop Despaigne from doing any more harm before the Cuban fighter got up and celebrated his victory.

Not even 10 minutes later, Despaigne had a contract in his face, and he signed on the dotted line. Talk about nailing an interview.

It was announced later in the ring at Fury FC 84 that Despaigne was signing on to begin his UFC journey. 

Despaigne is now 4-0 in MMA matches, and his previous two fights before knocking out Banks didn’t last long either. In fact, his last three fights lasted a total of 19 seconds.

Despaigne is no stranger to winning in a ring, though.
