Tamdan McCrory hadn't been in the UFC since losing to John Howard in August 2009, after which he wouldn't step foot into an MMA cage again until 2014. "Barn Cat" won back-to-back fights in Bellator, including a stunning KO over Brennan Ward, and then announced his return to the UFC earlier this year. After a back-and-forth battle between McCrory and Josh Samman at UFC on FOX 17, McCrory claimed the victory with a slick triangle choke in the final minute of round 3. He then celebrated by high-fiving Joe Rogan.
