Aldo takes a shot right to the bread basket.
Aldo is still on wobbly legs! Can Walker finish him?
Walker closes the distance and catches Aldo with a lead hook that drops him to the canvas! Aldo is clearly dazed and struggling here! 3,4,5,6,7 and Aldo is up to his feet but the referee has called it off! Aldo is still far too wobbly and he's not going to allow the fight to continue! Walker takes it!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:41 of round 2, we have a winner by way of TKO (Punch). Dwight Walker!
