UFC on Versus 4:
Kongo vs. Barry - Pittsburgh, Pa. – Consol Energy Center – June 26, 2011
Cheick Kongo survived a near-knockout to KO Pat Barry in the
main event of UFC on Versus 4.
On two occasions, the referee could have stopped the fight
in favor of Barry. At one point, the
announcer says, “It’s over.”
But Kongo kept getting up and rallied for the biggest
comeback win of 2011.
Watch the amazing finish for yourself.
In the welterweight co-main event, Charlie Brenneman beat Rick
“The Horror” Story by unanimous decision.
“The Immortal” Matt Brown snapped a three-fight losing
streak with a unanimous decision over John Howard.
Heavyweights opened the TV show, as Matt Mitrone knocked out
Christian Morecraft in the second round.
On the Facebook pre-show, Tyson Griffin beat Manny Gambuyan
by unanimous decision. Javier Vasquez beat Joe “Daddy” Stevenson in the same
way.
Joe Lauzon forced Curt Warburton to tap out to a kimura in
just under two minutes. Rich Attonito won a unanimous decision over Daniel
Roberts.
In a controversial bout, Charles Oliveira appeared to defeat
Nik Lentz by submission to a rear naked choke. However, the decision was
changed to a no-contest due to an illegal knee strike by Oliveira.
Michael Johnson defeated Edward Faaloloto by TKO in 4:42,
and Ricardo Lamas needed just one second less to beat Matt Grice by TKO.
