The UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) is often refereed to as the most brutal martial arts competition in the world. In the octagonal cage, anything can happen. From spectacular to ruthless action, UFC fights often give glimpse of ruthless fights. The same was visible during American professional mixed martial artist Sean O'Malley's fight against Jamaican-American rival Aljamain Sterling recently. 

O'Malley had the odds stacked against him with Sterling coming into the Saturday fight with a nine-match undefeated streak. The latter, who is known for his grappling prowess, used his strength but could not takedown in the first round.

Sterling came out all guns blazing in the second round but O'Malley managed to defend by staying out of range. Just then, as he was forced back, O'Malley came up with a right punch that threw Sterling to the ground. Then he finished the contest with a solid ground and pound. With the win, Sean O'Malley became UFC Bantamweight champion.

The video of the fight has garnered more than 12 million views till Monday evening.
