Eventually the ref decides to do his job and jumps in - Pettis screams abuse at the incompetent official before going over to celebrate with his corner. Brutal stuff!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:21 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Anthony Pettis!
Anthony Pettis bigged himself up after the win. The crowd seemed to love it.
In defeat, Sheng Long stepped up to the mic, saying 'You have defeated Sheng Long, you stand a chance!'.
