A nice right hand lands inside from Kaalikorva.
Kaalikorva lands an uppercut in the clinch that drops Samuels to his knees! Kaalikorva keeps firing more shots against his stricken opponent and the referee jumps in to save him!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:40 of round 3, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Kauno Kaalikorva!
