Mike Swick (Pictured) ended his 29-month hiatus in spectacular fashion by putting DaMarques Johnson to sleep with a vicious right hand at “UFC on FOX 4.” Unfortunately for “Quick,” his followup on primetime television didn’t work out as smoothly.
On Saturday night, Swick found himself on the wrong end of a highlight reel knockout. Matt Brown was the man who put him down.
Perhaps the only bad news for Brown was that his performance didn’t earn him ‘Knockout of the Night’ honors. Yves Edwards warned the $65,000 bonus check for his assault on Jeremy Stephens.
UFC on FOX 5 took place inside Key Arena in Seattle, Washington.
