In his second appearance at 185 pounds, “The Dreamcatcher” made quick work of Mark Munoz, battering the Reign Training Center leader with elbows before securing back mount and a rear-naked choke submission. With the one-sided win, Mousasi makes his long-awaited entrance in the middleweight rankings at No. 8.

At “The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil 3” Finale in Sao Paulo, heavyweight Stipe Miocic made the best of a bad situation by disposing of Fabio Maldonado in just 35 seconds.

In other action, C.B. Dollaway stole Francis Carmont’s spot on the list of middleweight contenders with a three-round rout of the Frenchman, and Iuri Alcantara improved his standing in the bantamweight division by clobbering Vaughan Lee with punches for a 25-second knockout.
