Redman drops Yol with a big left hand! Yol is injured, injured bad! Redman jumps in and finished him with strikes! The fight is over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:34 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). JT Redman!
JT Redman tried to hype himself up post fight but didn't word it too well and it ended up with him sounding like a bit of a tool.
SB Yol spoke after the fight, saying 'Vengeance will be mine'.
