Benson Henderson, even at 38 years of age, can still get the job done.
The former Ultimate Fighting Championship and World Extreme Cagefighting titleholder ran circles around Peter Queally and strengthened his position in the Bellator MMA lightweight division with a lopsided unanimous decision in their Bellator 285 headliner on Friday at 3Arena in Dublin. All three judges arrived at the same verdict: 49-45 for Henderson (30-11, 7-6 Bellator), who was deducted a point for an inadvertent low blow in the second round.
Nothing worked for Queally (13-7-1, 2-3 Bellator).
