The ref is looking closely - McGrufus is covering up but the punishment is just too much and the ref steps in to stop the fight! McGrufus is staring into space, just thankful that the beatdown has ended. Brutal finish.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:13 of round 2, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Doug Marshall! Doug Marshall thanked the fans post fight for their support.
