Video: Khaos Williams brutalizes Alex Morono in 27 seconds of short-notice UFC 247 debut

Khaos Williams has arrived.

A short-notice replacement for injured welterweight Dhiego Lima, Williams (10-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) entered enemy territory when he trucked Alex Morono on Saturday at UFC 247.

Williams came out fists-a-flying, winging punches at the Fortis MMA product. Morono (17-6 MMA, 6-3 UFC) retreated, but his back hit the cage, and he couldn’t escape Williams’ heat.

Eventually Williams landed a hard combination that crumpled Morono. Follow-up shots added insult to injury before the referee pulled Williams off the fallen Texan.

With the victory, Williams extends his winning streak to seven. The Michigan-born welterweight has picked up six finishes in 10 professional victories.

As for Morono, the loss snaps a three-fight winning streak dating back to November 2018.
