Fox Sports has the video highlights from tonight’s UFC Lightweight title fight between defending champion Ben Henderson and Nate Diaz. Henderson took home a unanimous decision victory after dominating all five rounds. He disrupted Diaz’ game, landed numerous slams and beat up Diaz on the feet and on the ground.
Here’s Chris Hall’s play-by-play for the second round:
With the first strike of the second round, Ben capitalized on Nate’s refusal to check leg kicks. He took the contender down, landed some solid shots then a headkick as Diaz stood up. Despite Henderson offense Diaz was relentless until Ben landed a big left hook that put him down. Ben tried to finish but Nate recovered. Nate hit a hiptoss from the clinch, but Bendo got right back to his feet. The low leg kick from Benson took Nate off his front foot almost every time he threw it.
