Stephen Thompson vs. Anthony Pettis was epic!
Thompson got off to solid start, mixing up his punches and kicks to bust up Pettis by the end of the first round. The second round looked a lot like the first, with Thompson landing the majority of the strikes and Pettis predominantly looking to kick. Then, with less than ten-seconds remaining in the second act, Pettis uncorked a superman punch that completely turned the lights out for Thompson. A pair of ground punches landed for Pettis and his welterweight debut was complete.
It looked as if the the highlight of the fight was going to be a systematic picking apart of Pettis at the hands of Thompson.
