Dwayne Lewis' eye after Ryan Jimmo fight at MFC 28

20110225115144_top_medium
Maximum Fighting Championships 28: "Supremacy" took place last night from the River Cree Casino in Edmonton, Alberta.
The eight-bout card was short on fights, but long on entertainment with the crowning of a new light heavyweight champion, Ryan Jimmo, who brutally stopped Dwayne Lewis in the third round when the ringside doctors determined Lewis was too beat up to continue.
Turns out, he suffered a broken orbital bone. Ouch.
Antonio McKee was originally set to defend his lightweight title on the card, but suffered a knee injury and was forced to withdraw from his bout against a debuting Drew Fickett. His replacement, Matt Veach, filled in on super short notice.

And as quick as it took for Veach to accept the fight, it ended just as quick thanks to a fight-ending armbar in just 36 seconds that forced him to tap.

But that's not all.
