WILMINGTON, Mass. -- His opponent may have brought the showmanship on the way to the ring, but Dan Lauzon (Pictures) brought it once the bell rang.

The skills of the youngest fighter to ever compete in the UFC were on full display Friday night, as Lauzon trounced Brendan Hoxie, an eccentric fighter out of Syracuse, N.Y., who entered the ring to the jingle from "The Price is Right" and wore a crown on his head.

Lauzon started the 170-pound bout with a wild flying roundhouse kick that knocked down Hoxie. Heavy strikes from Lauzon followed, including a series of crushing hooks and hammerfists.

Hoxie showed an incredible chin and absorbed an ungodly beating. He was floored several times and apparently had his nose broken before finally being stopped with 18 seconds left in the fight.

The bout was the feature attraction of World Championship Fighting's third offering from the Shriners Auditorium. The show, promoted by Joseph Cavallaro, longtime friend of UFC President Dana White, drew between 3,000 and 3,400 spectators. In addition to cameras from ESPN, HDNet and NBC, New England fight luminaries Kenny Florian (Pictures), Marcus Davis (Pictures), Jorge Rivera (Pictures) and Mark DellaGrotte were on hand.

DellaGrotte pupil Mike Campbell defeated Rich Moskowitz in the main event. Campbell, who drew some of the loudest cheers of the night, dropped the New Hampshire-based wrestler with a right hand 1:25 into the first round and pursued him on the floor until the referee stepped in. Moskowitz's corner complained of an early stoppage.

Campbell, who had defeated Hoxie two months ago on the Reality Fighting circuit, cemented his status as one of the most promising 170-pounders in the region with the win. In fact, Campbell was set to be shadowed by the "Tapout" film crew, but the trio had to cancel a planned trip to Massachusetts.

"He's looking forward to taking steps to get to the next level," DellaGrotte said of Campbell.

There was controversy between lightweights Chris Grandmaison and Jim Bermudez. The fighters ended up outside the ropes, and the referee restarted the fight in an ideal position for Bermudez to crank an armbar and force a tap.

A confused Grandmaison seemed unaware the fight had been restarted, and the referee was showered with boos by the audience. Bermudez, sporting a light blue Mohawk, played into the backlash by making faces and cupping his ears.

Team Bombsquad's Jon Jones impressed by blitzing Parker Porter and knocking him out in 36 seconds. Jones improved to 4-0 with the win.

Also notching victories were Dan O'Keefe, who came from behind to stun Garth Krane for a TKO in the second round; Ken Stone (Pictures), who toppled Ethan Keane with strikes in 33 seconds; and John Benoit (Pictures), who worked through a hard fight with Connecticut fighter Travis Lerchen (Pictures) to earn the split decision in an overtime round.

Dan Bonnell (Pictures) of Renzo Gracie (Pictures) New Hampshire came back from a knee to the body from Barrington Douse at the end of the first to win the second and the fight via decision.

The WCF returns to the Shiners Auditorium on Sept. 19.
