Payakaroon throws a big uppercut that drops Hershon! More strikes from Payakaroon and the referee jumps in to stop the fight! Hershon lies dazed against the cage as Payakaroon celebrates with his cornermen!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:43 of round 2, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Samart Payakaroon!
Samart Payakaroon decided to go for the less than humble approach in his post fight interview, telling everyone how he is going to conquer the world. The crowd seemed to like it when really that sort of approach could have gone either way.
