WATCH: When giants collided at UFC Rotterdam, of course the fight wasn’t going to last 17 seconds

Just like that

Darragh Murphy

With over 13 feet of combined height and over 530 lbs of combined weight, something crazy was always liable to take place.

The Goliath vs. Goliath contest put together when Stefan Struve was matched up with Antonio Silva had everyone expecting fireworks from the get-go.

And we got just that as referee Leon Roberts was forced to wave the action off at just 16 seconds of the very first round.

The monstrous match-up got started when ‘Bigfoot’ stormed Struve but was caught with a vicious uppercut from the plum clinch.

A knee rocked Silva and ‘The Skyscraper’ relentlessly pursued the finish with a series of thudding elbows to the side of the Brazilian’s head.

That’s all there really is to say about the fight. What more do you want from us?
