Chocolate is rocked!#CUT2#
Chip Chocolate's cut is getting worse.
Chocolate tries to get into range but Karlsson steps to the side and lands a beautiful hook that drops Chocolate! He's faceplanted into the mat, ass in the air... he's out cold! That's an image he won't want to show his grandkids when he gets older! Karlsson scores the big KO victory!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:15 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Kalle Karlsson!
Kalle Karlsson is the new super heavyweight champion!
Kalle Karlsson took to the microphone after his victory and thanked his sponsors, Sin City Allstars for their support in the buildup to the fight.
Chip Chocolate was interviewed post fight and said 'I'm gonna take this loss with a grain of salt, or a grain of sugar, and put it in a cookie, and eat it.'.
