It looks like Carlos Newton has been cut. Zheglov's coach down at Rabid Dog was telling us pre-fight that they have been working on Zheglov's balance. Obviously they view that as a key factor in the outcome of this fight. Zheglov cracks Newton with a big right hand that sends him crashing to the floor. Zheglov has the opportunity to follow him to the ground but instead he's beckoning Newton to stand back up!
Newton is rocked! Newton doesn't succeed with the takedown and Zheglov makes him pay by landing a nice hook to the body before moving out of range. Oh Newton is still all over the place! His legs are completely gone! Will he be able to recover?!! The crowd cheering loudly, showing their appreciation for the quality fight we're seeing here. Zheglov throws a wild combination but nothing lands. Carlos Newton seems to be the more aggressive standup fighter in this bout. Zheglov lands with a massive overhand right! Stick a fork in Newton - he's out cold! Ermm... I think I just mixed my metaphors but yeah... That was a nice KO! Big win for Zheglov!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:18 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Gleb Zheglov! Gleb Zheglov is the new middleweight champion! During a confident post fight interview, Gleb Zheglov thanked all his fans. He seemed very genuine when describing how motivated his fans keep him.
