The referee calls the doctor in to look at Corey McGregor's cut. Oh no, the doctor has called an end to the bout!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:39 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Cut). Rect Umm! Rect Umm retains his light heavyweight title!
Rect Umm decided to thank the fans in attendance for making a great atmosphere. It seemed to go down pretty well.
The defeated Corey McGregor had this to say: 'Your the weakest enemy i've ever faced..Pwehhhh!!!!'.
