Talbott’s UFC 332 Finish Puts the Fight-Week Talk in Focus
Payton Talbott defeated Deiveson Figueiredo by TKO at 2:09 of the first round at UFC 332 on October 3, 2026, in Salt Lake City.
Full Mount MMA’s roundup included Talbott’s preparation and discussion of other fighters’ possible plans, alongside Dana White’s Contender Series commentary. Those subjects mixed upcoming competition with public reaction and hypothetical matchups.
Talbott’s completed result is more specific than the predictions: he dropped Figueiredo early, hurt him along the fence and forced the referee’s stoppage. The victory came in the co-main event on the same night Natalia Silva defeated Wang Cong to claim the vacant women’s flyweight title.
Event Context
Natalia Silva won the vacant women’s flyweight title with a unanimous decision over Wang Cong. Payton Talbott stopped Deiveson Figueiredo at 2:09 of Round 1, while Esteban Ribovics and Roman Kopylov also earned first-round stoppages. The Salt Lake City card therefore combined a new champion with several quick finishes across the main card and preliminaries.
The method and timing identify how the contest ended. A knockout or technical knockout records a stoppage, while a submission records that a fighter tapped or the referee intervened on the grappling exchange. The listed round and time place the finish on the event’s official record and distinguish it from the other stoppages on the card. Because the bout ended before the final bell, no judges’ decision was needed.
