Josh Emmett didn’t just make his return to the UFC Octagon, he kicked the door down in violent fashion.
On Saturday night, more than one year removed from his last fight, Emmett squared off against longtime UFC veteran Michael Johnson on the main card of UFC on ESPN 2. After two rounds of fighting, the crowd inside the Wells Fargo Center began to voice their displeasure at what they perceived as a lack of action.
But, with a little less than one left in the contest, Emmett sent the crowd into a frenzy as he separated Johnson from his senses with a picture perfect overhand right to the jaw.
