In WSOF's headline bout, Justin Gaethje (11-0) won the inaugural WSOF lightweight title with a dominating TKO over Rich Patishnock (6-2) in Round 1. These two wasted no time in feeling each other out as Gaethje came forward like a man possessed and Patishnock had no problem meeting him head on. Both men took hard shots but Gaethje was not fazed and would wobble his opponent with a hard right hand. It was all Gaethje from there as he unloaded a mixture of punches, knees and elbows that would ultimately force the referee to jump in and call a halt to the action and crowning Gaethje as the lightweight champion.
