Watch Joe George deliver a massive uppercut to knock out Marcos Escudero

Joe George was trailing in scoring on two of the judges’ cards when he entered the 10th round against Marcos Escudero at Mohegan Sun Casino in Uncasville, Connecticut. But Escudero (10-2, 9 KOs) made a critical mistake, getting too “relaxed” in that final round, according to George, who delivered an uppercut that ended the fight in dramatic fashion.

George (11-0, 7 KOs) sent Escudero flying backward to the mat, and he couldn’t find his feet before the referee called the fight. It was a tremendous strike from George, who had been dealing with Escudero’s impressive power throughout the match. George’s strength, however, proved the winning force.

Here’s a look at the punch that won the match.

What a stunning finish.
