UFC Fight Night 42: Benson Henderson vs. Rustam Khabilov Fight Video Highlights
Benson Henderson sent a message by scoring his first-ever UFC finish with a fourth round submission of tough No. 11-ranked challenger Rustam Khabilov in the main event of tonight’s (June 7, 2014) UFC Fight Night 42 from the Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
With the win, Henderson firmly supllants himself as the UFC lightweight division’s clear No. 1-raned contender. Trouble is, “Smooth” has already lost to champion Anthony Pettis twice, and “Sjowtime” won’t defend the belt until he faces Gilbert Melendez at the cumination of the upcoming TUF 20 this December.
It’s going to tak a while for the cloudy UFC lightweight title picture to get sorted out, so in the meantime, check out the video highlights of Henderson’s inaugural UFC stoppage courtesy of UFC on FOX below:
