King Green pulled off a dramatic late first-round stoppage of Terrance McKinney at UFC 329, capping a wild lightweight clash at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sat., July 11, 2026.
McKinney came out fast, pressuring early, landing combinations and securing mount with a takedown. From there he threatened to finish, coming close with a rear naked choke and strikes in the first round.
Green weathered the storm and turned the fight around in the final moments of the frame. He escaped to his feet late in the first round and hurt McKinney with straight punches, front kicks, and a body shot, forcing the referee to step in just before the end of the opening round.
The victory continues a late-career surge for Green, who is described as having had dozens of professional fights and is a few months shy of his 40th birthday at the time of this bout. With the win over McKinney, Green moves to a four-fight winning streak.
