Key takeaways
Cheick Kongo beat Pat Barry by knockout at 2:39 of round one in the main event of UFC Live at the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh. In the co-main event, Charlie Brenneman beat Rick Story by unanimous decision after three rounds.
Across the ten bouts that produced a result, four ended by knockout, one by submission and five on the judges' scorecards — five stoppages in ten fights. Every decision was unanimous: not one result divided the judges.
The quickest finish belonged to Joe Lauzon, who stopped Curt Warburton at 1:58 of round one, and four of the five finishes came inside the opening round. The longest was Matt Mitrione's knockout of Christian Morecraft, 9 minutes and 28 seconds in. End to end, the ten fights filled one hour and 38 minutes of cage time.
The main card finished at the higher rate: two of four, against three of the six below it. Joe Lauzon (submission, round one), Ricardo Lamas (knockout, round one) and Michael Johnson (knockout, round one) all closed before the judges were needed.
One ranked fighters appeared. The only other ranked name was Charles Oliveira, No. 3 at lightweight.
