|  "A circuitous route to victory..." for Escudero
UFC 103 Notes: White on Mayweather, Escudero's Hospital Trip and More -- MMA FanHouse Quote:
Escudero goes from hospital to winner's circle in 24 hours
Efrain Escudero took a circuitous route to victory on Saturday night. The former Ultimate Fighter champ had a horrible time completing his weight cut on Friday and needed to take a trip to the hospital for IV's to rehydrate. Escudero told FanHouse that he'd been sick all week and his body did not adjust to the weight cut.
He showed no ill effects in the cage from the previous day's ordeal. He floored Cole Miller with a sharp right hand and knocked him unconcious with ground and pound. It was his first career TKO stoppage, and it improved his career record to 12-0.
"I'm working my standup every day and I'm going to continue to do that," said Escudero, who prepared for the reach differential by training with DeMarques Johnson. "I didn't want to go and use my jiu-jitsu. I thought it was time to make a statement, and I sure did that."
