Attendorf working the head with strikes.
Oh Shower Handel is still in real trouble! Will he be able to recover?!!
Attendorf in side control here. He's dropped a big elbow there and Shower Handel looks hurt! Oh, he is hurt! Attendorf turns on the heat and pounds him out for a TKO victory! Good killer instinct there!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:39 of round 3, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Clarence Attendorf!
Clarence Attendorf 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.
