Cub Swanson added another highlight-reel knockout to his resume, sleeping Billy Quarantillo with a booming right hand in the third round of the UFC Tampa co-main event.
Things got off to a fast and furious start with Swanson walking down Quarantillo. Swanson appeared to have a clear speed advantage, but it was Quarantillo who seemingly landed the biggest strike of the opening round, catching Swanson with a clean left before landing a takedown in the waning seconds of the first.
The sound round was just as frenetic with both fighters landing some big shots, including a brutal knee that caught Swanson on the chin.
