The Octagon remained in Nevada for tonight’s UFC Vegas 37 event, a fourteen bout fight card headlined by Anthony Smith vs. Ryan Spann.<\/p>\n

The light heavyweight main event proved to be a wild and short lived affair. Anthony Smith and Devin Clark both landed big shots in the early moments of the fight, but it was a right hand from ‘Lionheart’ that sent ‘Superman’ crashing to the canvas. From there, Smith would eventually lockup a rear-naked choke which forced Spann to tapout.<\/p>\n

In the co-main event of UFC Vegas 37, fellow light heavyweight fighters Ion Cutelaba and Devin Clark squared off in hopes of moving up the promotional<\/a> rankings. The bout resulted in a rather one sided affair. While Devin Clark certainly showcased his toughness during the fifteen minute contest, the three rounds were mainly dominated by Ion Cutelaba. ‘The Hulk’ utilized his wrestling to control ‘Brown Bear’ on the canvas while unleashing a plethora of ground and pound that left Clark’s mouth a mess<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Following the conclusion of tonight’s event<\/a>, UFC officials announced at the post-fight press conference that four fighters would be taking home performance bonuses.<\/p>\n
