Henderson, Daley, Lawler Score KOs; Strikeforce: Henderson vs. Sobral Results

Big knockouts were the theme of Saturday’s “Strikeforce: Henderson vs. Sobral” event, which provided a flashy alternative to the all-decision main card of UFC’s “The Ultimate Fighter” finale.

In their respective bouts with Renato “Babalu” Sobral, Scott Smith and Matt Lindland, Dan Henderson, Paul Daley and Robbie Lawler all achieved quick, devastating stoppage wins. Though all were impressive, Daley’s knockout–a left hand to the chin of a wobbly, recklessly advancing Scott Smith that sent him face first into the mat–resonated as one of mixed martial arts’ best knockouts of 2010.

The main card also featured victories for Antonio Silva and Mike Kyle. Results follow:

J.W. Wright b. Josh Epps via submission (guillotine) at 1:29 of Round One
