Again falls as favorite
Kinoshita lost to Billy Goff via TKO (punches) at 3:49 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Singapore.
ANALYSIS
It's not quite as bad as Kinoshita's knockout loss to Adam Fugitt as a -345 favorite this past February, but it's not great. He got cracked with a body shot from Goff, which seemed to shut everything down on the spot. Goff took full advantage, quickly following up and earning the stoppage. Kinoshita earned his UFC opportunity with a knockout win on Dana White's Contender Series last August, but he's been stopped in each of his first two official fights with the company. The lone good news is that he just turned 23 years of age, so there's still theoretical long-term upside here.
