Alex Garcia (14-3) took on Mike Pyle (27-13) on the UFC 207 prelims, and what a way to kick off the show.
Garcia didn't need the entire first round to put out Pyle, countering a leg kick with a nasty overhand right that put Pyle to sleep.
Pyle has lost two consecutive bouts by knockout, and four of his last five.
Garcia came into the fight after suffering a TKO loss in February.
