Power staying out of range there.
Wiley swings wildly with a couple of big hooks
and Power counters with a big right hand! Oh Wiley is in trouble here! Power follows up with more strikes and that's it! The ref has stopped it!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:01 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Max Power!
Max Power retains his lightweight title!
