Tresean Gore pulled off the biggest win of his career against Azamat Bekoev at UFC Fight Night 272, and did so after overcome adversity.
Gore (6-4 MMA, 3-4 UFC) was rocked and on the verge of being stopped in the second round of the middleweight bout vs. Bekoev (20-5 MMA, 2-2 UFC) at the Meta APEX in Las Vegas, but that moment only appeared to awaken the beast.
The significant betting underdog Gore started hurting a tiring Bekoev with strikes on the feet in the final frame before latching onto a guillotine choke and putting his opponent to sleep at the 3:27 mark of Round 3.

After the win, an elated Gore spoke about the pride he had for pulling off the unlikely result, according to the odds.
"Look what discipline gets you," Gore said in his post-fight interview with Michael Bisping. "This is just the beginning. I'm going to show what I can do. Keep doubting. I have title aspirations, but I've got to take my time."
