Dogg is still on wobbly legs! Can Ghostkeeper finish him?
Ghostkeeper pounces like a tiger and cracks Dogg with a vicious hook! Dogg is down but not out! Ghostkeeper follows up with more strikes forcing the ref to jump in and stop it!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:13 of round 2, we have a winner by way of TKO (Punches). Joe Ghostkeeper! |
