Gregor Gillespie showed heart, grit and relentlessness to take out Diego Ferreira on Saturday at UFC on ESPN 24.

In his first fight since a brutal head-kick knockout loss to Kevin Lee in November 2019, Gillespie (14-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) overcame a strong first round from Ferreira (17-4 MMA, 8-4 UFC) and took control in the second, using ground-and-pound to finish the fight by TKO at the 4:51 mark of the round.
