This has been an exciting period of action!
Von Lee lands a massive shot from half guard that has rocked Lindemann! More strikes land and this one is all over! Von Lee jumps to his feet and is applauded loudly by the crowd!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:55 of round 3, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Clifton Von Lee!
During a confident post fight interview, Clifton Von Lee thanked all his fans. He seemed very genuine when describing how motivated his fans keep him.
