For Matt Brown, it didn’t get much bigger than UFC Fight Night 40. It was essentially a hometown fight – one in which he ran his winning streak to a career-best seven fights. He also picked up both “Fight of the Night” and “Performance of the Night” honors.
Oh, and did we mention that the 2014 bout with Erick Silva earned “Fight of the Year” consideration, due in large part to an absolutely wild start to the main-event bout in Cincinnati.
It was vintage Brown, and it ultimately put him in a title-eliminator in his following bout.
Check out the full fight above.
And catch Brown (20-15 MMA, 13-9 UFC) back in action on Saturday, when he meets Donald Cerrone (31-7 MMA, 18-4 UFC) in UFC 206’s pay-per-view headliner at Air Canada Centre in Toronto.
