Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:32 of round 2, we have a winner by way of TKO (Cut). Brownie Anderson!
Brownie Anderson is the new welterweight champion!
Jumping up and down and very excited, Brownie Anderson waved his t-shirt featuring Humanoid Nutrition (160Q for 160$)'s logo in front of the cameras.
