Owens is rocked!
Owens in a bad spot here, taking shots to the head.
Oh Owens is still in real trouble! Will he be able to recover?!!
Cornelius lands a big shot to the head and Owens winces in pain. He's tapped out due to strikes!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:59 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (Strikes). Kolo Cornelius!
