Lee Browne said he "didn't come to Newcastle to play games" when asked about his game plan going into his fight with Billy Hawthorne in the cruiserweight bout at BKFC UK Newcastle. After Browne knocked Hawthorne down 5 times, Browne defeated him with a right hand KO in the 2nd round. Browne said he has respect for Hawthorne and said Hawthorne took the fight only two days before. Asked what's next for him, Browne wants to "go on to bigger and better things," like BKFC London and Liverpool. Browne says his strengths are he "can take a good shot, but can give a bigger one!"
