Gonzo Da Great seems to be the more aggressive standup fighter in this bout.

A jab and a right hook connect and Da Great buckles badly as his eyes roll back. The referee steps in and saves Da Great!! Da Great is complaining but he was clearly out on his feet. Salama throws his mouthpiece into the crowd. Mmmm spit-tastic.
