August 2, 2007

Middleweight: Gerald Harris (Silverbacks) vs. Benji Radach (Anacondas)

In the first round, Harris lifts Radach over his head and drops him to the mat.  However, Radach reverses and has a guillotine choke.  Harris again lifts Radach, causing Radach to release the choke.  After a minute or so later, Harris looks like he just quits.  I don't know if he just quit or if he was hurt. 

After seeing a replay on the video screens, it becomes apparent what happened.  Radach caught Harris with a right to the face that pretty much knocked Harris out.

Official result: Radach wins by TKO at 3:03 of Round 1.

Silverbacks are up 3-1 now.

Your description was quick and small in detail. I was there and it was great fight. Harris was not KO'd, but hit hard, the fight could have kept going.
