LAS VEGAS – Beneil Dariush didn’t need jiu-jitsu to win at UFC 248. The UFC veteran scored one of the best finishes of his career at Saturday’s UFC 248 pay-per-view event at the T-Mobile Arena, but it didn’t come by way of his nifty ground game. Dariush (18-4-1 MMA, 12-4-1 UFC) knocked out Drakkar Klose in the second round of their lightweight contest after a wild exchange that had the crowd on its feet. The final seconds were completely opposite to what went down in the first round. For the majority of the opening round, Dariush controlled Klose (11-1-2 MMA, 5-2 UFC) as he had taken his back and worked for a standing rear-naked choke.
