UFC headed deep into Texas for UFC Fight Night 94 on Saturday night. Hidalgo was the city of choice for a lightweight main event between Dustin Poirier and Michael Johnson.
Fast forward several hours and a couple of minutes and you'll notice Johnson getting his hand raised after a vicious KO.
There was indeed more than the main event to focus on. The co-main event put two of the up-and-coming contenders in the middleweight division against each other. Uriah Hall and Derek Brunson met in the center of the cage to decide who takes the next step.
A left hand to the jaw says it will be Brunson. There was some question regarding the stoppage. Was it too quick? Was it the right call? It's tough to say because Brunson sat Hall down cleanly and followed up quickly. In real time, it was a tough call to make. But referee Herb Dean made it, and Hall leaves Hidalgo as a loser by first-round TKO.
How did everything else shake out, and who exits Texas riding higher than before? We examine just that while also taking a look at those whose stock plummeted.
Here are the real winners and losers from Hidalgo.
Full results are featured on the final slide.
