Okay, so Le got this win, but he is very weak and 1-dimensional. As is always the case with new fighters. But I just want that noted, because he looked amazing in this one, but his health, conditioning, etc need tons of work, or he gonna get wrecking-ball'ed by someone even a little better than Phillip K. Davis, Esq. Whoever that is...
