Lavar Johnson, Ron “Abongo” Humphrey, Andre Galvao, Miesha Tate, Justin Wilcox, and Daniel Cormier all picked up victories at Friday’s Strikeforce Challengers 7 event in Fresno, California.

After being shot last July and nearly losing his life, Johnson successfully completed his MMA comeback in the main event of the Showtime-televised card, scoring a second-round TKO of Lolohea Mahe, while Humphrey submitted Georges Bush III in the opening round of the night’s co-headliner.

In other notable action, Galvao topped Luke Stewart in a controversial split decision, Tate subbed Zoila Frausto with a second-round armbar, Wilson took a unanimous decision over Shamar Bailey, and Daniel Cormier knocked out John Devine in the opening round.
