Elsewhere, Matt Brown garnered a $50,000 “Performance of the Night” bonus for a brutal first-round knockout of Diego Sanchez at welterweight. Brown caught a Sanchez kick and walked “The Nightmare” back to the fence. Moments later, he unloaded with an elbow that knocked his opponent out cold at the 3:44 mark.
Finally, Raphael Assuncao pocketed the evening’s other $50,000 “Performance of the Night” check for his knockout of Matthew Lopez in a featured bantamweight clash. In round three, Assuncao launched himself at Lopez with a flying knee near the fence. While that didn’t land, an ensuing left hand did, knocking out Lopez 1:50 into round three.
