UFC commentator Rogan was left very impressed following the KO and instantly uttered: “Oh my goodness, wow.
“Ladies and gentlemen, Dominick Reyes is back.”
After he floored Krylov, Reyes headed straight for US President Donald Trump, who was in attendance for UFC 314 at the Kaseya Center in Miami.
“I’m not back, I’m better,” Reyes told Rogan after his impressive victory, which leaves him undefeated in his last three UFC fights.
He then acknowledged Krylov as a tough fighter, before calling for a top 10 fight as the No.11-ranked light heavyweight going into the fight and eventually a title shot down the line.
The 35-year-old American has previously contested Jon Jones and Jan Blachowicz for the light heavyweight title, and wanted to cement his name back as a top contender in the division at UFC 314.
‘The Devastator’ went undefeated in his first six UFC fights before challenging Jones for title, with many saying he should have even claimed the unanimous decision himself.
After losing to Jones, Reyes lost another title shot to Blachowicz, before suffering defeats to Jiri Prochazka and Ryan Spann.
He has since flipped the script in his MMA career and is looking better than ever.
Elsewhere at UFC 314, Dan Ige kept himself in the top 15 featherweight rankings with his 11th UFC win and a stoppage victory over Sean Woodson.
Meanwhile, Virna Jandiroba cemented her name as the No.1 contender to Zhang Weili’s women’s strawweight title by defeating Yan Xiaonan via unanimous decision.
Also in Miami, Chase Hooper defeated UFC legend Jim Miller by unanimous decision and called to fight up-and-comers next, while Julian Erosa knocked out Darren Elkins, and Michal Oleksiejczuk finished Sedriques Dumas all during the preliminary bouts.
