Mateusz Rebecki got a much-needed win at UFC Fight Night 283 when he stopped Kyle Prepolec.
After suffering three straight losses against strong competition, Rebecki (21-5 MMA, 5-4 UFC) responded well from a pressure-filled position by overwhelming Prepolec (18-11 MMA, 0-5 UFC) with grappling and ground-and-pound until an unanswered flurry of strikes forced the referee to step in for the TKO at the 4:41 mark of Round 1.
Check out the replay of Rebecki's dominant performance below (via X):
After the win, Rebecki expressed relief to get his hand raised for the first time October 2024. He then called out ranked 155-pound name Benoit Saint Denis, who is coming off a loss to Paddy Pimblett at UFC 329 in July.
"Before I didn't show I can fight – right now I focused on my game plan," Rebecki told Michael Bisping in their post-fight interview. "I feel I take his soul. I don't give up. Keep going and going and dish out this punishment. I want to thank my corner."
