Take a look below at the UFC Fight Island 4 main card video highlights, boasting three finishes and an entertaining performance by Felipe.
Yorgan De Castro vs. Carlos Felipe
De Castro and Felipe brought the heat for two hard rounds — and then De Castro got tired. Round three opened with a video game-like combination from Felipe before De Castro resorted to pinning his opponent against the cage. The referee was having none of it and regularly broke up the stalls.

Germaine De Randamie (no. 1) def. Julianna Pena (no. 4) by submission via guillotine choke (3:25, R3)
De Randamie vs. Pena was billed as a classic striker vs. grappler match. GDR showed off her powerful striking in round one; however, it was ultimately her submission skills that won the fight. Pena shot for a takedown in round three and was promptly slept with a high-angle guillotine choke.

Dusko Todorovic def. Dequan Townsend by TKO via strikes (3:15, R2)
It seems Townsend consumed the soul of Mark Hunt because he presented a titanium chin against Todorovic. Unfortunately, his inability to get out of bad positions forced the referee to stop the fight.
