UFC star Douglas Silva de Andrade suffered a horrific cut before coming back from the brink of defeat to choke out opponent Sergey Morozov in stunning fashion.The Brazilian bantamweight took on Kazakhstani Morozov on the preliminary card of UFC 271 on Sunday Morning, where he was able to clinch a second successive win.Silva de Andrade looked as if was about to suffer the fifth defeat of his career after a devastating knockdown in the first round courtesy of a nasty uppercut.But the 36-year-old veteran came back in the second round to deliver a rear-naked choke and end the fight in sensational style.Silva de Andrade started off extremely tense and slow with his striking.Before long, he found himself on the floor and subject to a vicious ground and pound by Morozov, whose elbow opened up a gruesome cut on the side of his head.But after being taken down by a spinning back kick, the Brazilian came into the second round a more dangerous man, dropping Morozov with two nasty rips to the body.A devastating right-hand then knocked down Morozov once more before a series of flying knees and an elbow saw the Kazakhstani fighter hit the canvas for a third time.Do you think Silva de Andrade's comeback was the best performance of the night?
