Two nice knock downs but prevailed the power puncher
Always like those endings.
Nice KO, nice crowd :)
Had to watch this again. This venue is awesome for boxing events, it reminds me a bit of the good old Blue Horizon we used to see on Tuesday Night Fights :) You guys remember that?
that counter left hook though…my favorite punch
Excellent fight, both men putting it on the line. Not many guys would’ve got up this week even from either of the knockdown punches! Major respect x
