Dana White's Contender Series appearances don't get much better than Lone'er Kavanagh's on August 14.

Dana White's Contender Series Results & Highlights (Season 8, Week 1)

Coming up against fellow undefeated prospect An Tuan Ho in the night's curtain-jerker fight, it seemed evenly matched on the feet until Kavanagh closed the show with a one-shot knockout.

Conditioning Ho with leg kicks and body attacks, Kavanagh mixed up his rhythm by stepping in on a thudding left hook, which completely flattened Ho for several minutes. The broadcast cut to UFC CEO Dana White, who exclaimed, 'Holy s***!'.

"He showed me his notes. And it said holy s***," Kavanagh explained his interaction with White as he walked around the cage after the fight.

Viewers will have to wait for the night's conclusion to see if Kavanagh has secured a UFC contract, but with a performance like that, it's almost a guarantee.
