Official highlights
Since the boxer was still cold and the punch so well connected the recovery was impossible. Excellent knock out.
Great stoppage, the right then left really rattled the champs brain, that sort of decelleration would knock anyone out! Great choice of punches, he was also getting his foot inside to manipulate the champ. Good coaching.
