EXCLUSIVE
Ex-UFC fighter Melvin Guillard[1] -- who fought the likes of Nate Diaz[2] and Justin Gaethje[3] -- brutally attacked and KO'd a man in a Colorado bar ... and now cops are on the hunt.
TMZ Sports has obtained surveillance footage which shows the 35-year-old getting into it with several people at Bar Standard in Denver around 2 AM on Monday morning.
After some pushing and shoving, you can see Guillard -- with his trademark bleach blonde hair -- cold-cock a bar patron in the face ... knocking the guy out cold before he hit the floor.
The victim was clearly unconscious and people ran to tend to him -- while a female patron tried to attack Guillard in retaliation. Guillard hit her too.
TMZ Sports spoke with a Denver Police Dept. spokesperson who told us several witnesses were able to identify the attacker as Guillard ... and now a warrant has been issued for his arrest.
Guillard was a pretty promising MMA fighter when he first started out -- appearing on "The Ultimate Fighter" season 2. He famously scored a victory against UFC stud Jeremy Stephens[4] back in 2010.
But, he also got his ass kicked a lot ... chalking up Ls to guys like Nate Diaz, Israel Adesanya[5], Justin Gaethje, Michael Johnson[6] and Donald Cerrone.
We've reached to Guillard for comment -- so far, no word back.
