Mike Malott knocked out Joaquin Buckley in the second round of the UFC Edmonton main event, beating the highest-profile opponent of his UFC career while fighting in his home country.
The win extends Malott's run to five straight victories and puts him in the welterweight top-10 conversation.
For Buckley, the defeat is a third consecutive loss, leaving his next step in the division unclear.
In the co-main event, Jasmine Jasudavicius beat Erin Blanchfield in an upset, a result that sets back Blanchfield's push towards a UFC title shot. Much of the rest of the Edmonton card ended in finishes.
