Résumé du résultat
Tensions were high after Ismael Bonfim missed weight by a massive 7.5 pounds, but Francisco Prado, entering the bout on a four-fight skid, took full advantage of the opportunity. Right from the opening bell, Prado looked energized, walking down the heavier Bonfim and letting his hands fly. Prado controlled the striking exchanges early before changing levels and successfully dragging the fight to the mat. Once on top, Prado was merciless, posturing up and raining down ferocious ground-and-pound. He severely hurt Bonfim with heavy elbows and punches, forcing a merciful referee stoppage at 04:23 of the very first round to secure a desperately needed statement win.

Clés de la victoire

Ismael Bonfim
