The RAC Arena in Perth, Australia played host to a heavyweight scrap between hometown here Justin Tafa and Parker Porter at UFC 284. Tafa looked to make it two in a row after delivering a highlight-reel first-round head kick KO of Harry Hunsucker in December 2021. Parker Porter’s three-fight win streak came to an end after a first-round submission loss to Jailton Almeida in May. He entered the Octagon intent on getting back into the win column and quieting the raucous Australian crowd on Saturday night.
Round 1
Tafa comes out throwing a right hand early. Porter responds with a right of his own. Nice little combination by Porter, throwing a 1-2 followed by a low kick. Porter moves in and runs right into the left hand of Tafa that immediately puts his lights out 66 seconds into the bout.
Official Result: Justin Tafa def. Parker Porter via KO (strikes) at 1:06 of Round 1
