Jacoby and Jung were feeling it early as they looked excited to exchange in front of a wild Long Island crowd. After stinging Jung with a stiff jab midway through the first round Jacoby launched a perfectly-placed right hand that caught Jung on the temple. Jung toppled to the canvas in a heap. It looked like he may have been able to recover, but the referee already stepped in for the stoppage as Jacoby was walking away.

Jacoby, 34, is now 6-0-1 since returning to UFC back in 2021. The former professional kickboxer always possessed top-level talent, but he needed a win like this to push him towards the light heavyweight top 10. It will be interesting to see who Jacoby lands next and if he’s able to remain undefeated in his second UFC stint.
