A heavyweight matchup some feared may fall flat due to a close personal relationship between the fighters turned into one of the most memorable affairs in recent memory when Andrei Arlovski knocked out Travis Browne in the Round 1 at UFC 187. Arlovski (24-10 MMA, 13-4 UFC) was pegged as a significant betting underdog, but again surprised everyone when he tagged Browne (17-3-1 MMA, 8-3-1 UFC) early and didn’t stop until he finished the fight. It was an incredibly entertaining bout because Browne nearly came back from the verge of defeat to score his own TKO, but ultimately Arlovski’s shocking career revival took another step forward when he finished the fight. Check below for the top Twitter reactions to the “Round of the Year” candidate between Arlovski and Browne at UFC 187.
