Now that he’s finally in the UFC, Chidi Njokuani isn’t messing around.

Njokuani (22-7 MMA, 2-0 UFC) scored his third finish inside the octagon Saturday at UFC Fight Night 206 by demolishing Dusko Todorovic with a brutal elbow to knock him out at the 4:48 mark of the first round.

Including his appearance on Dana White’s Contender Series, the elbow knockout marked Njokuani’s third consecutive stoppage in the octagon. It took him all of 16 seconds to TKO Marc-André Barriault in his UFC debut in February.

Njokuani, 33, spent three years in Bellator and made an LFA appearance before getting his UFC opportunity. He’s certainly made the most of it so far.
