Edmen Shahbazyan climbed back into the win column with a vicious first-round TKO over DWCS alum Dylan Budka at UFC Vegas 102 on Saturday night.
Shahbazyan made a massive statement in his return to the Octagon, finishing his opponent in the opening minute with a brilliantly-timed step-back counter right that sent Budka crashing to the canvas and curling up against the fence.
The win moved Shahbazyan to 7-5 under the UFC banner and 14-5 overall.
