Johnson on the wrong end of a decent looking cross there.
Johnson misses with a kick to the body
and God counters with a good right hand that lands right on the jaw.
Johnson is rocked!
That's four minutes gone in the round.
Johnson thows a leg kick but God checks it
and God counters with a beautiful right hand that knocks Johnson out cold! What a finish! God is going crazy, running around the mat, summersaulting off the corner posts and screaming into the cameras. Something tells me he's pretty happy!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:06 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Gully God!
Gully God retains his middleweight title!
During a confident post fight interview, Gully God thanked all his fans. He seemed very genuine when describing how motivated his fans keep him.
