The air smelled of belligerence, beer and body odour when Ontario-born Mike Malott knocked down the American Charles Radtke with a sharp left hook in front of 20,000 roaring UFC fans at Montreal’s Centre Bell arena Saturday night. The fight was early in the UFC 315 pay-per-view event card, but it was one of the most anticipated: an American versus a Canadian on home soil, in the wake of mounting political tensions between the two countries.
