Conor Cooke made Anthony Holmes stop on his stool to say gold within the BKFC Fight Night headliner on Saturday.
Cooke related early with a glancing proper hand, busting Holmes open close to his proper eyebrow. The lower appeared to have an effect on Holmes, who spent the rest of the opening spherical on his again foot.
Holmes desperately tried to shut the space within the second, however Cooke made him pay, opening one other lower on the other eye. That prompted the referee to pause the motion and have the lower checked by the ringside doctor. The battle was allowed to proceed regardless of Holmes seemingly wanting no a part of Cooke.
Cooke continued to dominate the motion within the third, sending Holmes again to his nook, shaking his head and clearly pissed off.
Earlier than the fourth spherical might get underway, Holmes declined to get off his stool, ending the battle and crowning Cooke the brand new BKFC UK gentle heavyweight titleholder.
Official End result: Conor Cooke def. Anthony Holmes by way of TKO (retirement) at 2:00 of Spherical 3 to win the BKFC UK gentle heavyweight championship.
