Martin lands a short shot on the inside that snaps the head of Twentysix backwards.
Oh Twentysix is still all over the place! His legs are completely gone! Will he be able to recover?!!#T2#
Martin mutters something to Twentysix before pushing him back against the cage. As Twentysix comes back towards him, Martin unloads a hook from the very depths of hell that knocks Twentysix clean out! Oh. My. God. That is some seriously brutal stuff right there! What a knockout!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:10 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Marvin Martin! |
