UFC Columbus: Matt Brown talks about ‘big mistake’ in war with Bryan Barberena

Matt Brown put on a show last night in his home state of Ohio. Opposite Bryan Barberena ‘The Immortal’ had a brawl for the ages. Unfortunately for Brown, the fight—his 42nd pro contest—ended in a split decision loss.

After the fight, which scooped Fight of the Night honours, Brown took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the bout.

“Thanks to everyone for all the support,” wrote Brown. “I felt like I won the first two rounds so held back in third. Big mistake apparently. Big respect to Barberena he’s a real fucking soldier.”

Brown then walked back his self-criticism.
