Earlier this year Makwan Amirkhani wowed UFC fans with an eight-second finish of Andy Ogle in Stockholm.
He was back in action again on Saturday evening taking on Masio Fullen at UFC Berlin.
Once again, the bout was brief. Not quite eight seconds brief, but still it was over pretty quickly.
How legit is Makwan Amirkhani!!!!! @UFCFightPass #UFCBerlin

Just 1:41 into the first round, Fullen tapped out due to a rear naked choke.
It may not have been 8secs but such an impressive performance from @MakwanAmirkhani at #UFCBerlin! http://t.co/zNRVUwWQWB

Afterwards, Amirkhani gave an emotional interview to Dan Hardy.

Following his win against Ogle back in January, Amirkhani explained his family's living situation and said that the first thing he would buy with his prize money was a bed for his mother.
There’s me and my sister and my mom living in the same house, and we have only two rooms. So my mom gave the rooms to us, and she sleeps in the living room on a mat. And, it’s not nice, but what can I do?
She gave the bed for us. Now, when I go home and I move to Stockholm, I will give her the room, and I will buy a – I think with $10,000 – a bed that flies.
