Giacomucci is sitting in half guard. He's postured up and lands a nice elbow. Oh, Wok is hurt! He's hurt bad - Giacomucci fires away with more strikes and the referee jumps in to save Wok from any more punishment! Congratulations to Giacomucci! Great finish!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 5:56 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Giuseppe Giacomucci!
After the fight, Giuseppe Giacomucci was humble in paying tribute to his opponent but made it clear he wants to go on to bigger and better things. It seemed to go down well with the crowd who cheered him loudly.
