Bellator Kickboxing champ Denise Kielholtz made perfect use of her heavy hands in Bellator 247’s short-notice main event, starching Kate Jackson with a flurry of punches to pick up a stoppage just 43 seconds into the fight.
From the outset, Jackson didn’t cover up well as Kielholtz winged fastballs at her head, and after a few initial skirmishes, she was sent tumbling across the Bellator canvas after taking a left hook to the head. Kielholtz followed with more punches, one of which skirted with illegality, before referee Dan Miragliotta was able to save Jackson in the main event of Thursday’s event at Allianz Cloud in Milan, Italy.
