Jordan (15-4 MMA, 3-1 UFC), who knocked out buddy and fellow heavyweight Pat Barry (8-6 MMA, 5-6 UFC) at the June 15 event, said he was able to set aside the friendship for one night. It resulted in a $50,000 “Knockout of the Night” award after just 59 seconds of work. Later on the pay-per-view main card at Winnipeg’s MTS Centre, Miocic (10-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) upset Roy Nelson (19-8 MMA, 6-4 UFC) in the co-headliner.
