Krause is rocked!
Krause will have to do better than that with his takedown attempts.
Oh Krause is still all over the place! His legs are completely gone! Will he be able to recover?!!
Krause circles to his right, straight into a beautiful hook by Singh. Krause falls face first into the canvas - great knockout victory for Singh!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:52 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Arshnoor Singh!
Our winner, Arshnoor Singh, made sure he spent some time buttering up the crowd during his post fight interview, which will no doubt bring him a few more fans.
James Krause was interviewed post fight and said 'I want a rematch. I'll beat him in the next one, just as I did with everyone who was lucky enough to beat me in Highland Games.'.
