[autotag]Jairzinho Rozenstruik[/autotag] validated himself as a heavyweight contender Saturday when he rallied to stop Alistair Overeem in the final seconds of the UFC on ESPN 7 main event.
Rozenstruik (10-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) was down big on the scorecards when he pulled off a miraculous one-punch TKO of Overeem (45-18 MMA, 10-7 UFC) in the heavyweight headliner, which took place at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C.

With the win, Rozenstruik remained undefeated in his MMA career and is coming off back-to-back finishes of heavyweight legends in Overeem and Andrei Arlovski.
After the fight, he called for a showdown with [autotag]Francis Ngannou[/autotag] (14-3 MMA, 9-2 UFC) in 2020. “The Predator” seemingly obliged on social media, but is that the matchup that makes the most sense for Rozenstruik?
