Ben Bonner stunned Tony ‘Loco’ Soto in the BKFC 76 headliner on Saturday night to capture the interim lightweight championship.
Less than a minute into the first, Bonner caught Soto with a left hand that sat the former BKFC titleholder down. Soto quickly got back to his feet and made out out of the round despite absorbing some vicious body blows from the Brit.
Soto hit the mat a second time in the second stanza, but the referee was quick to rule it a sleep, allowing the action to continue uninterrupted. However, Bonner landed a hard right hand with 10 seconds to go in the round, sending Soto to the canvas once again.
