Latest heavyweight addition
Pinto defeated Lucas Camacho via KO (punches) at 1:43 of Round 1 at Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series. After the show, he was one of four fighters to be awarded an official UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
After a brief feeling-out period, Pinto found his target with a left counter hook that sent Camacho to the canvas, and a few follow-up shots put out his lights as referee Mike Beltran was stepping in. It was an impressive effort and the second consecutive first-round finish of the card, albeit both were expected results from betting favorites upwards of (-700). The UFC needs heavyweight depth, and it will get it here in the form of an undefeated, 26-year-old who hails from Portugal. Given Pinto only absorbed seven strikes here, he should be ready for his company debut in short order.
