KSW 83 fireworks
KSW 83 is in full swing and Artur Szpilka has defeated Mariusz Pudzianowski in the second round after being completely dominated in the first. Pudzianowski acquired full mount early and pretty much stayed posted on top of Szpilka, raining down all manner of punches, cutting his foe in the process. At the end of the round, many were wondering how much longer the former boxer would be able to continue after the amount of punishment he sustained in the opening stanza.
Watch for yourself
Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat
The second round lasted just 31 seconds. Artur Szpilka landed the perfect clean shot as Pudz was advancing, catching him right on the chin, felling the 5X World’s Strongest Man like a sack of bricks. Referee Marc Goddard wasted no time in calling the bout. The 46-year-old, who many thought wasn’t serious about the sport, looked damned good in there until he got caught. Such is the way of MMA.
