The referee calls the doctor in to look at Frank Bellator's cut. Oh no, the doctor has called an end to the bout!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:56 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Cut). Gattsu Emelianenko!
A relieved looking Gattsu Emelianenko thanked the fans for their support and gave the usual line about them being amazing. They seemed to believe that he actually meant it.
