Watch Carlos Vera land incredible head kick into rear-naked choke finish for massive upset at UFC Vegas 104

Yesterday at 06:14 PM

Carlos Vera finally got his first win in the UFC and he did so in spectacular fashion.

On Saturday, Vera took on UFC debutant Josias Musasa in a prelim bantamweight bout at UFC Vegas 104 and "Pequeno" silenced all his critics with a sensational head kick that dropped Musasa in the first round, leading to a submission finish.

Check out the wild highlight below.

Not only was Vera the biggest underdog on the card, he was one of the biggest underdogs in UFC history, as high as +600 on some books. But Pequeno didn't pay that any mind, landing a number of punches and even a spinning wheel kick early in the first round.

Despite Vera's success, Musasa never looked worried and was perhaps too calm in the cage as Vera landed a flush head kick three minutes into the round that floored the Congolese fighter. The Ultimate Fighter veteran then seized his opportunity, quickly jumping onto Musasa's back and securing the fight-ending rear-naked choke.
