CFFC 99 Video: Watch Lydell Poag win debut with 22-second knockout from vicious elbows

Debut performances don’t get much better than what Lydell Poag turned in at CFFC 99 on Saturday.

The second fight on the main card didn’t last very long as Poag put out his opponent Stavros Moustakakis in just 22 seconds.

Moustakakis looked like he was in deep on a takedown attempt, however, Poag reversed the attempt and ended up in guard. From there, the fight would end a second later after Poag postured up and unloaded a vicious elbow that found the mark.

Moustakakis was out after just one, but Poag landed another and the referee called a stop to the bout. After getting back to his feet, Moustakakis appeared to not realize he went out momentarily from the first strike on the ground.

Poag is now 1-0 in his professional career and the JacksonWink MMA product has an incredible moment on his highlight reel.
