Fantastic stuff here - a very entertaining period of action, which has drawn cheers from the crowd.
Bannon gets to his feet and steps away from his opponent. Boykin's hands are dropping dangerously low here and Bannon connects clean with a right hook that sends him down to one knee! Boykin scrambles back to his feet.
Bannon lands a left and a right that send Boykin crashing to the mat, dazed. Bannon thinks about following him to the mat but decides to wave him back up to his feet!
 It looks like Dimentiy Boykin has been cut. Today's fight clock is brought to you by... OOOH that's a huge shot by Bannon! Boykin is in big trouble here - the ref steps in to save him and this one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:41 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Shannon Bannon! In his post fight interview, Shannon Bannon started talking himself up. Luckily his charisma kept the crowd on side and gave him a good reception.
