Vaughn lands a big right hand that sends Trevino crashing to the mat! Vaughn stays standing though and waves Trevino back to his feet!
Are you kidding me?! Vaughn ducked down and unloaded an uppercut from hell that sent Trevino clean off his feet! Someone make me a GIF - that's knockout of the night for sure!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:32 of round 2, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Erick Vaughn!
A very excited looking Erick Vaughn made sure he remembered to thank all the fans both in the arena and on the internet. He said all the coolest people spend all day on MMA websites, which got a big reaction. |
