Roy Nelson knocked out Brendan Schaub in the first round to win the tenth season of The Ultimate Fighter.
Schaub appeared to be getting the better of the stand-up as he peppered Roy Nelson with a series of punches but Nelson was effectively deflecting the damage. Roy responded to Brendan's strikes by securing a takedown and worked side control until Schaub was able to stand up. Unfortunately for Schuab h couldn't find his rhythm on his feet as Nelson landed a flush right hand, which knocked Schaub out.
In the post-fight interview Nelson commented that he was a little "tired" but would got get some "Burger King." Ironically Roy Nelson walked out to Weird Al Yankovic's "I'm Fat".

Dana White’s worst nightmare? For some reason I see him getting bounced the fastest of all TUF winners.
Was he wearing a Strikeforce beanie during his entrance?
Wasn’t Rothwell in the WEC as well?
I could see them giving him Cain regardless of the outcome of Cain vs Nog, as either a rebound fight or a fight where he has little chance to lose while he waits for his title shot.
Not that I think Cain would have little chance to lose to Nelson, but I feel like the UFC would make that fight on that premise. Nelson couldn’t take him down but in this one fight I’ve seen better standup from Roy than in the last 3 from Cain.
I am sorry that you dont think a heavy person mocking their weight is not ironic humor

don't be sorry
just look up the definition.
it’s funny. it’s not ironic. if he came out to a song called “I’m skinny” that would be ironic.
