Lopez raining down shots from the mount!
Henderson is rocked!
Lopez softens up his opponent with a couple of shots there and then CRACK! One massive shot lands there and Henderson is out cold! Lopez jumps to his feet and celebrates on the cage with the fans, who are, quite frankly, going absolutely mental!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:36 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Tony Lopez!
During a confident post fight interview, Tony Lopez thanked all his fans. He seemed very genuine when describing how motivated his fans keep him.
