SEATTLE – The main event was a lop-sided victory by Benson Henderson as the champion was successful in his title defense winning by unanimous decision (50-43,50-45,50-45).
Henderson used a mixture of leg kicks, takedowns and grappling dominance to completely control the match. He has now defended his belt twice and riding a six fight winning streak. It is also worth noting that he is undefeated since his move to the UFC.
It is unknown who is next up for the lightweight champion but should Anthony Pettis win in his next fight, Henderson is sure to be motivated for a rematch to avenge his last defeat which took place at the final WEC event.
