Ryan Spann Makes Quick Work of Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
Ryan Spann was too fast and strong for the aging Brazilian legend. After nearly submitting the Jiu-Jitsu master in the opening moments, Spann would ultimately get the nasty finish via knockout. The short combination put Nogueira out.

Spann is huge as a light heavyweight, but he does need to work on getting his right hand back to his chin when he's jabbing. Nogueira was able to touch him there a few times. Perhaps a quicker and more energetic opponent might have taken advantage of the opening. As it is, Spann made the statement in the choice spot as the featured prelim.
