Endo working the ground and pound.
Oh Acheampong is still in real trouble! Will he be able to recover?!!
Endo looks up at the clock and then as Acheampong takes his cue and looks up at the clock too, Endo smacks him right in the chops with a big elbow! How rude!
Endo in side control here. He's dropped a big elbow there and Acheampong looks hurt! Oh, he is hurt! Endo turns on the heat and pounds him out for a TKO victory! Good killer instinct there!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:55 of round 1, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Sota Endo! |
