A head kick by Kemp - that's a beauty! Monsterson is out but he's somehow still standing... he's going... going... gone. Like a drunk walking down the middle of the road, the inevitable face plant follows and the delayed knockout arrives. Even Kemp can't help but laugh at the bizarre end to this one!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:46 of round 2, we have a winner by way of KO (Head Kick). Adam Kemp!
During a confident post fight interview, Adam Kemp thanked all his fans. He seemed very genuine when describing how motivated his fans keep him.
