In the season opener, Kavanagh (7-0) clobbered previously undefeated An Tuan Ho (6-1) with a brutal left hook that ended the fight at 2:35 of Round 1. The bout took place at DWCS 67 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Ho was down on the canvas for an elongated period of time, blankly staring into the distance as his corners, medical staff, and referee Herb Dean tried to assist him in coming back to. Eventually, Ho rose to his feet under his own power but was not present for the reading of the official decision

However, after the highlight he pulled off in the event-opening bout at Indigo at 02 Arena, Kavanagh (3-0) sent the London crowd into a frenzy with a beautiful slip-and-rip knockout of Ryan Morgan (1-1). The finish came at 1:13 of Round 3. Morgan threw a right hand, which Kavanagh avoided. A left followed, but also Kavanagh dodged.
