Well, Manuwa said “lions eat first.”
In the main event of tonight’s UFC Fight Night: London, light heavyweights Jimi Manuwa and Corey Anderson battled it out for supremacy in the division.
Manuwa landed a startling KO punch in the very first round, scoring “Poster Boy” a swift victory. The fighter immediately called out the winner of champion Daniel Cormier and Anthony Johnson. But, he also called out former multi-champion boxer David “The Haymaker” Haye.
Many fighters have begun shooting out their thoughts on the impressive victory. Here are a few below.

Shit man. I thought Corey was gonna get him down a few times & diminish that power a bit. Feinted the hook low & came over the top perfectly
