After two absolutely wild rounds on the feet, during which both men landed big shots, Pantoja grounded the fight in the third. From there, he put his grappling skill and clear strength advantage to use, locking up a body triangle, and ultimately a rear-naked choke for the win.

The stoppage occurred in the first round. After struggling to get a read on Bofando’s unpredictable kicks, Ward initiated a tie-up. Though he appeared to be the stronger man in this position, Bofando then whipped him to the ground with a throw, causing the Irishman’s head to rattle of the canvas. The impact was so severe that it knocked Ward out cold. Bofando’s volley of follow-up punches only served to seal the deal.
