Mairon Santos is the featherweight winner of The Ultimate Fighter 32.

Santos faced Kaan Ofli in the first of two season championship bouts during the main card of Saturday’s UFC Vegas 96 event at the UFC APEX. After a solid first round for Santos, he put an exclamation point on the performance with a nasty counter left hand that put Ofli out upon landing. The fight was stopped seconds later and Santos officially became a UFC fighter.

Check out video of the stunning finish below.

Santos earned his spot in the finals with a pair of decision wins over Edwin Cooper Jr. and Guillermo Torres. The 24-year-old improved his pro record to 14-1, with his lone loss coming two-and-a-half years ago to current UFC 145-pounder Dan Argueta in LFA.

Ofli saw his eight-fight win streak come to an end. The Australian fighter earned his place in the TUF 32 final with a decision win over Nathan Fletcher and a first-round submission of Roedie Roets.
