Tyson Pedro is back in a big way. The UFC light heavyweight had his first fight since 2018 on Saturday at UFC Fight Night 205 in Las Vegas. Pedro (8-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC) put away Ike Villanueva in devastating fashion in the first round of their light heavyweight bout. Pedro hampered Villanueva with several leg kicks that limited his mobility.
