After losing three of his last four fights, "Filthy" Tom Lawlor picked up a much needed win on Tuesday at UFC on Fuel 3 in Virginia, knocking out Jason MacDonald in just 50 seconds.
MacDonald, who himself had lost two of three coming into the event, attempted to bring the fight to the ground early. However, Lawlor stuffed the attempt, then connected on a perfect punch to the jaw of MacDonald that hurt him badly. A follow-up to the back of the ear sent MacDonald to the ground, and one more punch later, the fight was stopped.
It was Lawlor's first win since a decision over Patrick Cote in October of 2010. MacDonald has now been stopped in the first round in consecutive fights, and has lost three of four since returning to the UFC.
