That's one minute gone in the round.
Bohemia scores with a leg kick.
Bohemia fakes a couple of low kicks, before throwing one on the third attempt. It connects and Saburov has to reset his feet before getting ready to engage.
Ohhhhhhhhhh, brutal head kick from Bohemia! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:17 of round 2, we have a winner by way of KO (Head Kick). Handy Bohemia!
