Fight summary

Sebastiaan Rothmann hammered another Australian, Adam Watt, to defeat in 8 rounds of an interesting fight. Watt was down in the 2nd from a straight right, but beat the count, only to delay matters for a few rounds. Early in the 8th, Rothmann dropped Watt again, this time with a right uppercut that hurt the Australian former world kick-boxing champion badly. He staggered up, but went down again from a huge overarm right, and although he once more made it to his feet, referee Len Hunt counted him out.
