Video: Zack Mwekassa destroys Mourad Bouzidi in first round to win GLORY interim light heavyweight title

That is the war cry of Zack Mwekassa (15-3) each and every time he fights, and at GLORY 31 this past Saturday (June 25, 2016) "The Black Warrior" obliterated 15-year veteran Mourad Bouzidi (71-24-3) in the opening round by technical knockout (three knockdowns in one round) to win the GLORY interim light heavyweight title.

The official time of the stoppage came at 1:47 of round one (full results here).

Mwekassa, 32, dropped Bouzidi in the opening seconds with a left hook, which sent the Dutch-Tunisian fighter crashing to the canvas. Bouzidi would beat the count, but Mwekassa would level him a second time with the same exact punch.
