UFC on Versus 1 preliminary-card recap: Clay Guida and Brendan Schaub impress

BROOMFIELD, Colo. – Not even the oxygen-depleted high altitude of Colorado could slow lightweight sparkplug Clay Guida, whose up-tempo and overtimes-smothering offensive attack earned him a victory over Shannon Gugerty in the featured preliminary-card fight of UFC on Versus 1.

The event took place at the 1STBANK Center in Broomfield, Colo., and preceded Versus’ first-ever broadcast of an Ultimate Fighting Championship event.

Of the night’s seven preliminary-card fights, two featured notable Colorado natives. One picked up an impressive knockout victory while the other’s night was cut short by a gruesome injury.
