Lewis is still on wobbly legs! Can Foj finish him?
Lewis has been the more effective fighter overall so far.
Foj connects with a quick right hand that sends Lewis tumbling backwards onto the canvas! As his head bounces into the ropes, it doesn't look good for him beating the count! 3,4,5,6,7 and he's up! No, he's back down again! This one is all over - the referee has called off the fight!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:10 of round 3, we have a winner by way of TKO (Punch). Jetmir Foj!
Jetmir Foj was full of energy after the big win and talked about how he thinks he can do big things in this sport. The crowd were appreciative of his determination to succeed.
