In the main event of UFC Rio Rancho, Jan Blachowicz knocked out Corey Anderson to solidify himself as a possible next contender for the light heavyweight title.
What was the high point of the fight?
Both men started by exchanging strikes on the feet. Anderson has some gold success with leg kicks early on, whilst Blachowicz was throwing some heavy hooks on the counter.
As Anderson stepped into range to try and land a leg kick, Blachowicz ducked under and threw a big right hand that dropped Anderson. After landing a follow-up hammer fist, referee Herb Dean rightfully stopped the fight and Blachowicz walked away with the first-round KO win.
