Bell lands three nice shots there - that looked like it hurt!
Bell lands a right hook to the body.
Bell circles and sees the opportunity to plant his feet and throw a really nice straight left hand that drops Skallagrimsson to the canvas! Skallagrimsson doesn't know where he is but he's trying to survive - Bell keeps piling on the pressure and forces the referee to step in! This one is aaaaaall over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:05 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Stringer Bell!
Stringer Bell retains his light heavyweight title!
