Hanma working some nice short punches in the clinch.

Torres is rocked!
Hanma lands an uppercut in the clinch that drops Torres to his knees! Hanma keeps firing more shots against his stricken opponent and the referee jumps in to save him!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:23 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Yujiro Hanma!
