The Anthony Johnson (16-4) vs. Mike Kyle (20-11-1) matchup was canceled twice before it finally happened. But when the two men finally stepped in the cage, it delivered fireworks, as expected.
Johnson earned his sixth consecutive victory with a thunderous knockout in the co-main event of World Series of Fighting 8, which took place at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla. The night’s main card aired on NBC Sports Network following prelims that streamed on MMAjunkie.
Johnson was aggressive from the opening bell, and while Kyle moved well to start, he eventually engaged in a firefight and was made to pay for the mistake. A devastating Johnson right hand put Kyle face-down on the canvas.
