Bout Summary

Montana was warned in Round 2 for a punch that strayed low. A counter left hook caught Montana on the jaw and sent him down hard on his backside, then flat on his back. He remained down with his eyes closed and made little attempt to get to his feet, before the referee stopped counting and waved an end to the bout.
