Conor McGregor vs. Donald Cerrone
Round 1 – Conor comes out and throws a big left right away. Cerrone steps into it but McGregor hit him with a hard shoulder check that hurt his nose. It looks broken. McGregor with a big head kick and he lands a left and Cerrone is hurt! Two more and he goes down! McGregor is all over him, changes position, and gets the finish! Just. Like. That.
Conor McGregor defeated Donald Cerrone via TKO (strikes), :40 of round 1
