UFC Vegas 54 results and highlights: Johnson violently KO’s Patrick, Petroski chokes out Maximov

The UFC Vegas 54 prelims are in the books, and aside from three decisions, two fighters went to sleep tonight — one by way of knockout, and the other by technical submission.

Closing out the preliminary portion of the event, the UFC’s #8 ranked women’s flyweight, Viviane Araujo, won a unanimous decision over the #9 ranked women’s, Andrea Lee. This fight started hot, with both fighters doing damage and hurting the other in a wild opening act. Then as the round grew on, the wrestling of Araujo began to win out. She was finding the dominant positions, forcing Lee to constantly find a way out of bad positions.
