A jab from King misses.
King cracks Johnson with a hook to the jaw. Both fighters smile at eachother and high-five before getting back down to business.
Johnson batters King with a massive right followed by a huge left! King is out on his feet looking like a zombie as Johnson lands a final crushing right hand to drop King to the mat with a gruesome thud! Johnson is running around like a mad man after that fight and for good reason!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:27 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Strikes). Calvin Johnson!
Calvin Johnson decided to thank the fans in attendance for making a great atmosphere. It seemed to go down pretty well.
