Niko Price proved once again Saturday night that the sport of MMA is like a box of chocolates — you never know what you’re going to get.
In one of the most surreal sequences in recent memory, Price (12-1, 1 NC) scored a sensational, highlight-reel second-round knockout of Randy Brown (10-3) at UFC Boise. Working from bottom position, Price first trapped Brown’s head with his left foot, then unloaded a thunderous series of hammerfists that instantly put Brown to sleep. In all, the 28-year-old welterweight landed six unanswered shots on Brown before referee Herb Dean realized what happened.
