A middleweight tilt between Paulo Borrachinha and Garreth McLellan kicked off tonight’s UFC Fight Night 106 event in Fortaleza, Brazil.
Round one begins and Borrachinha starts off quickly landing a nice right hand. He is pressuring McLellan early here. Paulo with a nice combination. He backs Garreth up against the cage. McLellan clinches up and throws a couple of knees. Paulo is relentless however and continues to throw big punches. He catches Garreth with another big right hand. McLellan goes down and Paul is quick to follow him to the ground. Big shots from the top by Paulo. The referee mercifully steps in and stops the fight.
