Power is looking for an opening here. He's unloaded a big left hand that catches Revival flush on the jaw and sends him tumbling to the canvas! Revival is out cold! Power holds back from landing any unnecessary shots to his unconscious opponent, as the referee reacts slowly to the situation. A brutal knockout and then some excellent sportsmanship - this guy is my new favorite fighter!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:43 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Max Power!
