Diaz walks straight into a right hand from Queen - that's dropped him! Queen jumps into mount and starts pounding away - can he finish?! More strikes go undefended and the referee has to dive in to save Diaz from any more punishment! Diaz complains about the stoppage but falls over as he tries to stand back up, so it was clearly a good stoppage.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:59 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Punches). Oliver Queen!
Oliver Queen decided to thank the fans in attendance for making a great atmosphere. It seemed to go down pretty well.
