All jokes aside... Knockout has power... Many of his UD's are him battering guys around the ring dropping them at last once.
Eh...He was kind of in a bad position; if he didn't go as hard as possible from the start, there's a very good chance he would have been picked off by his more technically adept opponent, without having the same type of success that he enjoyed in the first two rounds. Even toward the end of the third, he was starting to get timed by flush counters. As it stood, Knockout CP gathered himself nicely and wound up winning in style.
