UFC on ESPN 39 post-event facts: Ricky Turcios’ rough striking numbers enter record books

Rafael Fiziev (12-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) put a highlight on the end of a long night of fights, though, when he scored a fifth-round knockout of former UFC champ Rafael dos Anjos (32-14 MMA, 20-12 UFC) to extend his winning streak in the lightweight division to six consecutive fights.
