Fellow Irishman McGregor was one of the interested observers of Garry’s latest UFC outing and was over the moon by his performance.

He tweeted: “Ian Garry you little daisy.”

UFC fans were equally as thrilled by Garry’s performance, with one tweeting: “That’s how you come back I respect it.”

Another said: “Very clean striking, go on Ian.”

And another said: “That was some cleannn striking.”

One remarked: “What a finish.”

Garry really turned up the heat in the second round with crisp and malicious striking.

But it was the third in which he really damaged Song, rocking him up against the fence and making no mistake when he dropped to the canvas.

Victory over Song has stretched Garry’s UFC record to a perfect 4-0.

And he’s set his sights on fighting at UFC 287 in Miami next month
