Boombada jabs. That one connects to the head of his opponent.
Boombada closes the distance and lands a vicious right hand that drops Dewis! Boombada dives in looking to finish! Dewis is still trying to defend himself but he's taking too many shots and the referee has no choice but to stop the fight!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:15 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Africa Boombada!
