Will he stop it?? One more big shot from McKenzie and the ref steps in to end the fight! McKenzie can't hide his delight as he celebrates with his corner.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:41 of round 3, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Cody McKenzie!
Our winner, Cody McKenzie, 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.
