Bergfried gets clipped by a big right hand and goes down spinning to the canvas! Aas gets the back mount and begins to drop bombs on his rocked foe! Bergfried is too out of it to defend against the strikes and the referee jumps in to save him from the beatdown!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:56 of round 3, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Aslak Aas!
Aslak Aas made sure to mention his sponsor, Milwaukee's Best 160 (80% laundry) in his post fight interview.
