Andre Fili delivered one of the best knockout finishes of the year earlier tonight (Sat., Oct. 10, 2026) at UFC Vegas 122 LIVE on Paramount+ from inside Meta Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada, as “Touchy” slept featherweight counterpart Kai Kamaka with a blistering second-round knockout (head kick).
This was one of the fights that had the potential to steal the show. Both Fili and Kamaka always bring the dog out in their opponents and have the knack for delivering Fight of the Night action. Oddsmakers had the fight pretty even entering Saturday night, but some thought Kamaka would have an edge given his punching power and pressure. Fili, however, had other plans and decided to turn in one of his biggest performances to date.
After an entertaining first round that saw both fighters inflict damage, Fili needed just 22 seconds into the second round to deliver a head kick that left the Meta Apex in a frenzy. Fili first hurt Kamaka with a stiff left hook and then launched the kick with perfect placement. Kamaka immediately went limp before slamming backwards onto the canvas. Fili rushed in and looked to be on his way to a Dan Henderson-like flying finish, but he held up at the last second as Kamaka was completely out.
