Joe Lauzon TKO’s Diego Sanchez in first round at UFC 200
What an amazing performance by Joe Lauzon as he finished Diego Sanchez via strikes early in the first round in the main event on the UFC Fight Pass preliminary bouts at UFC 200. There was never a point after the first big shot that Lauzon landed where Sanchez was in the fight. In all honesty the referee could have stopped the contest earlier, but he allowed the fight to continue and Lauzon would get the win at 1:26 in the first round.
