Brutally finished in St. Louis
McKinney lost to Esteban Ribovics via KO (head kick) at 0:37 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in St. Louis.
ANALYSIS
McKinney has picked up countless instant knockout victories over the years and was given a taste of his own medicine here against Ribovics. A beautifully placed head kick dropped Terrance in an instant, and it was clear the fight was immediately over. Five of McKinney's seven career defeats have come via knockout. While "T.Wrecks" is a lot of fun to watch, it hasn't resulted in consistent success inside the Octagon. McKinney is just 3-4 in his past seven bouts dating back to March 2022.

Instant knockout victory
McKinney defeated Brendon Marotte via TKO (strikes) at 0:20 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
McKinney's one-dimensional offensive arsenal and poor gas tank are legitimate concerns, but his power and explosiveness are both exceptional, and as a result, he is going to blow through fringe-roster fighters such as Marotte like he did here. One huge knee and some follow-up strikes later, this fight was over. McKinney has won two in a row on the heels of a brief two-fight losing streak.

Set to face Marotte
McKinney will face Brendon Marotte in a lightweight bout at UFC Vegas 81 on Oct. 14, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
McKinney was expected to face Chris Duncan (undisclosed), but his opponent changed after the latter's withdrawal. McKinney will aim to start a winning streak after ending a two-bout losing run with a win over Mike Breeden on Aug. 12.

Not fighting Duncan
McKinney will not fight Chris Duncan at UFC Vegas 81, according to Nolan King of USA Today.
ANALYSIS
Duncan withdrew from his scheduled fight against McKinney, who will need a new opponent quickly. But with UFC Vegas 81 more than three weeks away, there is a chance the promotion finds him a new opponent in time for the event. After all, McKinney's last fight was one in which he defeated Mike Breeden on nine days' notice.
