RIO DE JANEIRO – Mike Pyle’s experience and accuracy proved to be too much for fellow welterweight Ricardo Funch.
Although Funch brought a considerably sharper-looking standup game to the fight, Pyle’s punches and knees brought a stop to the fight at the 1:22 mark of the first round.
The preliminary-card bout was part of UFC 142 and aired on FX prior to the pay-per-view main card. It took place at HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro.
