Chris Leben couldn’t have written a better ending to his career.
The 40-year-old veteran, who spent years competing in the UFC after he was part of the original cast of The Ultimate Fighter, officially retired on Friday night after earning a devastating first-round knockout over Quentin Henry at BKFC KnuckleMania.
Leben had already been out of action for nearly two years when he decided to come back for one last fight while teaming up with BKFC after two previous appearances for the promotion.
It was a classic performance on his part as Leben blasted Henry with a flurry of punches just past the one-minute mark of the opening round to finish the fight.
