LAS VEGAS - Hands be damned. Bart Palaszewski thought he may have broken his hands, but when he had the chance to pound out Tyson Griffin, he went for broke.
Palaszewski scored a vicious knockout of Griffin at the 2:45 mark of the first round at the Mandalay Bay Events Center. The former WEC fighter was a plus-260 underdog.
Griffin is now 1-1 back down at featherweight. The 28-year-old climb near the top of the mountain at lightweight with a close loss to Sean Sherk at UFC 90. Since then, his career has been derailed by weight issues, injuries and bad knockouts.
Tonight, we witnessed another low. Griffin and Palaszewski circled for the first few minutes. Palasszewski was effective with the jab and few front kicks. Griffin tried to counter with the overhand right.
Palaszewski landed a left hook that changed the fight with 2:30 left and backed it up with another left that sent Griffin bouncing to his knees. Griffin bounced up and Palaszewski hopped on him. He unloaded 18 straight punches. Several right hands softened him up before another right got Griffin to drop his hands. Palaszewski landed a three-punch combos that included two hard lefts. Griffin went down and was out of it.
