Fans at the U.S. Bank Arena witnessed their local fighter, Matt Brown, score a TKO over Erick Silva in the main event, earning Fight of the Night and Performance of the night honors.

In the co-main event, Costa Philippou engaged in a striking affair with Lorenz Larkin. In the end, Philippou landed the knockout blow in the first round.
