Derek Brunson knocked the smile off of "Smile'n" Sam Alvey's face at UFC Fight Night 73 earlier tonight (Aug. 8, 2015) in Nashville, Tennessess.
The No. 15-ranked Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Middleweight dropped Alvey with a left hook against the cage and followed up with big punches on the ground to earn the technical knockout victory inside Bridgestone Arena.
Referee Mario Yamasaki waved off the fight at the 2:19 mark of the opening round. However, the "Music City" crowd was not pleased with the stoppage.
Brunson got after it early and rocked Alvey along the fence.
