Wow what a round. Jenkins gets low-blowed but comes back with a flurry and floors Burns. Jenkins stands up but Burns can’t get to his feet and it’s a win by TKO for the Melbournian.

Second Round

The two gameplans are here. Burns wants to be on the mat and Jenkins wants to swing. Burns is forced to stand up four times by the referee. Jenkins ha smashed the lead leg with kicks and hit a huge kidney punch. Burns got one good takedown but couldn’t keep control.

Second Round

Big Train knocked down Reyes and cut him open. Should be up 20-18 on the scorecard.

Early Prelims

What a start we’ve had.

The previously undefeated Stewart Nicholls was in complete control of his fight against Jesus Aguilar but made a mistake and got caught in a guillotine choke to lose by submission in the first round.

Then in our second fight it was a war between Song Kenan and Rick Glenn. It was a brutal fight but in the end Kenan claimed the victory by unanimous decision.
