The bell rings for round one and we are underway!
A decent looking cross lands there for Akutagawa.
Akutagawa catches Banjo with a nice straight right. He seems pissed - ooooh, it's on now! On like donkey kong!

Akutagawa drops Banjo with a hook right on the temple. He thinks about going to the ground but Banjo looks back up at him and smiles so Akutagawa waves him back to his feet - he obviously thinks he can knock him out after that shot landed.

Banjo is rocked!
Banjo misses with a left hand
and Akutagawa counters with a beautiful right hand that knocks Banjo out cold! What a finish! Akutagawa is going crazy, running around the mat, summersaulting off the corner posts and screaming into the cameras. Something tells me he's pretty happy!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:14 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Ryu Akutagawa!
A less than humble Ryu Akutagawa misjudged his post fight interview somewhat and came across a little too arrogant whilst trying to hype up his own abilities.
