Sean Woodson continues to score wins, and this time it came with a bang as he pulled off a major finish of Fernando Padilla during the preliminary card of UFC Tampa.
Woodson had to outlast an early surge from Padilla, but he fought back to fire off his own flurries during the second half of the first round.
"The Sniper" then fired off back-to-back powerful one-two combinations to drop the Mexican in the closing seconds of the first round. Woodson needed just a little ground-and-pound before the referee stepped in to wave off the fight.

Padilla., meanwhile, falls to 2-2 since making his UFC debut in April 2023.
