Beautiful. He set that up by going to the body over and over again beforehand. Wow!
Melvin has the middle age man body now. The explosion and athleticism that made him so dangerous is gone. It’s time he retires and moves on to the next stage in his life whatever that may be.
not the most exciting fight .. but MAN ..that was a beautiful KO !
Heard Muslim is in the UFC now ….
