For almost two minutes both George Garcia (2-2) and Ron Scolesdang (3-2 MMA) kept the entire crowd on the edge of their seats. From the opening bell both fighters threw heavy hands, with little regard for defense.
At first it was Gracia who tested Scolesdang’s chin early and often. However, Scolesdang’s beard never faltered. After surviving Garcia’s initial charge, it was Scolesdang who struck the decisive blow. After landing with a left, Garcia looked to follow but did so recklessly and walked right into a Scolesdang right hook that starched the advance.
The shots that followed fell Garcia leaving him prone on the canvas forcing the referee to prevent any further damage. Although the fight did not last very long, it certainly delivered. It is rare see two well rounded prospects square off this early in their careers and the fight was certainly one no one who will soon forget.
