Bilal Hasan looks to be the real deal.
The 25-year-old flyweight prospect put out Mridul Saikia in just 45 seconds into the first round at Tuesday’s Dana White Contender Series at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas. It was the first finish of the card, setting Hasan up as a likely candidate to win a contract with the UFC.

Hasan (9-0) dropped Saikia (9-2) with a giant right hand and then followed up with ground-and-pound to close the show. Hasan, who’s admittedly a big fan of Michael Jackson, then hit the moonwalk to celebrate his TKO win.
