UFC Fight Night 128 has come-and-gone and it was quite the event.
The event saw Kevin Lee dominate Edson Barboza, aside from one scary moment from a hook kick, en route to a fifth round TKO victory due to doctor stoppage.
Also on the card, Frankie Edgar bounced back from his first-ever knockout loss to Brian Ortega by defeating Cub Swanson in a rematch in front of his hometown fans in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Edgar defeated Swanson via unanimous decision after three hard-fought rounds.
