Alan Belcher showed that 16 months off didn't hurt him as he took out Jason MacDonald at Ultimate Fight Night 25 on Saturday evening in New Orleans.
Belcher outclassed MacDonald from the beginning of the fight. MacDonald tried for a takedown but ended up falling backwards with Belcher on top of him. Belcher took advantage of the position, ground and pounding MacDonald. Though MacDonald tried to spin away, it was too much and MacDonald submitted to strikes at 3:48 in the first round.
This was Belcher's first fight since beating Patrick Cote in May of 2010. Belcher suffered an eye injury, and had to have surgery that put his fight career in doubt. He worked back to be able to fight in his home state of Louisiana.
"I'm so emotional right now. I've been through so many trials and tribulations. I'm back, baby," Belcher said.
This win gives Belcher a record of 17-6, while MacDonald falls to 25-15.
