Smith is figuring out what he wants to do next.
Oh Kowal is still in real trouble! Will he be able to recover?!!
Kowal on his back here. We all know that wrestlers don't like being on their back so let's see if Kowal tries to get out of the position.
Smith lands a big elbow - Kowal is out of it! He's waving his arms around but his eyes are closed and he's not intelligently defending himself - the ref has no choice but to jump in and stop the fight! This one is in the books! A TKO win for Smith!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:24 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Hunter Smith!
Hunter Smith is the new heavyweight champion!
An out of breath Hunter Smith thanked his loyal fans in his post fight interview, giving them credit for his success over the course of his career.
