Cro Cop Mirko KOs Magomedov!
Mirko ended his 20th MMA bout in a brilliant way, by a 1st round KO win over Ibragim Magomedov. From the start of the fight Mirko was the one in control and it was obvious that the fight won't be too long.
Mirko was superior in stand-up as expected, he landed some solid left straight punches, but the fight was decided by Mirko's middle-kicks. Two of them landed very hard and after the 2nd one Ibragim was unable to continue the fight.
A very impressive win for Mirko and now we can definitely say: "Fedor, you're next!"
