Vera finished Cruz in round 4, while he was down on the judges scorecards

Chito Vera racks up his list of legend killers with his latest finish over Dominick Cruz. The 29-year-old Ecuadorian now boasts an impressive resume with names such as Frankie Edgar, Sean O’Malley, and now Dominick Cruz with his performance at UFC San Diego. One of the most powerful punchers at 135, Chito is hardly one fight away from a title shot, if he doesn’t receive it already.

The sheer gore of the KO where you can see a legend like Cruz break his nose before he face-plants on the canvas, had many worried and saddened by the fate that one of, if not the greatest bantamweight champion in the history of the organization met. With this Chito is on an impressive 4 fight win streak in arguably the most stacked division in the UFC.

Here are the best fan reactions to the main event at UFC San Diego.

But in all honesty, has Chito done enough to earn that O’Malley rematch? Does he even want it?

Pure Violence and the best most heartbreaking sport in the world.

While disturbing as it is, Keith Peterson sure wishes he could have been in there tonight, Modelos and all.

On a separate note, Herb probably had his colleague’s back

To be fair, Angela finally won on a judges scorecard so she’s earned it.

Many wished to see the mythicized Aldo-Cruz clash if it wasn’t already too late

To be fair DC seemed upset to see a fellow veteran go down like that, but a small part deep inside him sure felt this way

The power Chito carries is unreal for a lower-weight class

Props to Dominick Cruz, who was in fact winning two rounds on all judges’ scorecards.
