Freire tries a head kick but it misses.
Prah is still on wobbly legs! Can Freire finish him?
Freire pounces like a tiger and cracks Prah with a vicious hook! Prah is down but not out! Freire follows up with more strikes forcing the ref to jump in and stop it!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:56 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Punches). Hyury Freire!
Our winner, Hyury Freire, 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.
