World Series of Fighting 3 Results: Josh Burkman BEATS John Fitch in 41 Seconds!
Josh Burkman BEATS John Fitch in 41 Seconds With Guillotine Choke!
In the main event at World Series of Fighting 3 on Friday June 14, 2013 at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada Josh Burkman BEAT the favored John Fitch in 41 seconds of the first round!
Coming into the fight John Fitch was the favored to win. They met in the middle of the ring and a hard right hand by Burkman put Fitch to the mat. Burkman then went in for the guillotine choke and it was over! Fitch went limp and Burkman leaped to his feet in VICTORY! The crowd EXPLODED With a ROAR!!!
I think the crowd roared from shock at first, not believing that Fitch was out, then, realizing Josh Burkman, the under dog in this fight did it! He WON. He beat Fitch when even the sports book had him as the under dog! Way to go Josh Burkman.
Josh Burkman lost to Fitch the first time they met about 7 years ago by rear naked choke. This quick WIN on Friday night avenges his loss.
I personally would like to see a rematch! Time will tell.
