Blachowicz catches Anderson with a big shot and drops him to score the finish in the first.

He immediately goes over to Jon Jones to stare him down.

JAN BLACHOWICZ TURNS THE LIGHTS OFF IN NEW MEXICO!!! WOW!! KNOCKS OUT COREY ANDERSON IN THE FIRST. His boxing is legit. I know there's no heat for a Jon Jones title fight, but I'd be interested. Jan's hands are real.

The most dangerous threat to Jon Jones IMO just got upset. Is it March madness yet . Excellent fight Jan B #UFCRioRancho

Got to feel for Corey Anderson. He had some nice momentum going, but Jan Blachowicz just put an end to that with a powerful right hand. #UFCRioRancho

Don’t throw leg kicks in the pocket against a power puncher. #UFCRioRancho

Supremely fortuitous for Blachowicz to have Jones cageside. Speaks it into existence.

Jones is standing on his chair and seems to be loving this.

All of a sudden, Jones has multiple solid options at 205 when it seemed not that long ago that he didn’t.
