Fuel TV hosted free live UFC fights for the third time, with an interesting choice of Tuesday night. Those who tuned in were treated to some great fights. On the undercard, Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone picked apart Jeremy “Lil’ Heathen” Stephens en route to a unanimous decision victory. With the win, Cerrone got back on track in the ultra-competitive lightweight division. “Filthy” Tom Lawlor was impressive as well, knocking out Jason MacDonald in 50 seconds in one of the first bouts to air on Fuel. MacDonald had been considering retirement, and after being put to sleep in under a minute, that looks like his best bet.
