On Saturday   Jake Matthews  put on the best performance of  his  young career. The 23-year-old came out throwing bombs despite the fact that  he 's known for  his  grappling.  He  lit Li Jiangling up throughout the fight  flooring the rugged Chinese fighter on several occasions.
In the second round   Matthews  almost stopped Li  but the latter used a blatant foul to escape the finish. Look at this insane foul:
Matthews didn't dwell on the injustice  he resumed his domination with another knockdown in the third round to seal his win. This one was a great fight  though  Matthews  left little doubt about the result.
