Pettis spent much of the fight looking to land flashier, more karate-inspired attacks like spinning kicks and Superman punches. Henderson, meanwhile, chopped away with calf kicks, body shots, forward pressure, and combination punches, building up an early lead. As the fight wore on, both men upped their aggression, with Henderson pushing the pace and Pettis starting to land nasty counter shots. At the end of five rounds, it seemed liked Henderson had done enough to get the win, but the judges decided that a sudden-death sixth round was necessary. With the fight on the line, both men really got after it, but Pettis was able to finish stronger, landing the bigger shots as the round came to a close.
