Rouch with a knee to the head.
Sa is rocked!
That's two minutes gone in the round.
Rouch lands a big knee! That's hurt Sa! Oh, he's all over the place! Rouch lands another knee that sends Sa to the floor and the referee steps in to end the fight!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:12 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Chase Rouch!
Chase Rouch seemed lost for words in his post fight interview but he remembered to thank his fans and directed everyone to his website.
