The PFL put on a highly entertaining night of fights this past Saturday in Paris. The card’s main event was a fight between a debuting Cedric Doumbe and Jordan Zebo. The battle ended before it even began. Doumbe won by knockout nine seconds into the very first round. Many people were shocked by the finish, including world-class footballer Kylian Mbappe.
Who is Kylian Mbappe
Mbappe is one of the best footballers on the planet today and is an incredibly popular athlete. Seeing a superstar attend the PFL and enjoying the fights was great. He plays for Paris St Germain and has captained the French national team to a World Cup final. The 24-year-old has quite the body of work on a football pitch and can be one of the greatest players ever to play the game. He scored goals and produced quality performances in the biggest games. The Frenchman is a tremendous athlete, and it is good to see him enjoying other sports.
An Incredible Performance By Cédric Doumbé
There was a lot of hype around Doumbe, as he looks to be an imposing prospect and is an excellent addition to the PFL roster. He has a perfect professional record of 5-0, but he had so much hype around him due to his incredible kickboxing career. It is safe to say that he backed up all the hype when he secured the sensational knockout victory. He looks to be a significant competitor in the sport for many years to come, and if he produces performances like he did on Saturday, then the fans are in for a treat. The knockout was incredible, and Mbappe was not the only one excited by the performance.
Doumbé After The Fight
After the contest, Doumbe had this to say.
“I felt very great, very in shape to knock him out. I knew that I would knock him out. Of course, I didn’t know it would take ten seconds, but I was sure he wouldn’t get out of the first round.”
