Want to see a boxer make his opponent look silly? Look no further than what Yoenis Tellez did to Sergio Garcia on Saturday night at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Tellez got the win with an impressive finish that started with a knockdown and ended with the referee stepping in. It happened in the third round, when Tellez countered jab by Garcia with a hard overhand right that buckled his knees. Garcia didn’t go down completely, however, and when he stood back up, he ate another hard right that dropped him to the canvas.
Garcia tried explaining something to the referee during the 10-count. Once he answered and the fight resumed, Tellez pounced with an onslaught of punches that sealed the TKO.
