Daniel Weichel stunned the Bellator 281 crowd in London as he stopped Robert Whiteford by Technical Knockout. It took only one round and a few exchanges for German veteran and former Bellator champion Daniel Weichel to catch Scotland’s, Robert Whiteford.
As the action began in round one, both men began a tentative feeling out process, Whiteford the Matador and Weichel the bull. As Weichel backed Whiteford to the cage, though, he unloaded a big overhand right, followed by an uppercut. The German chased Whiteford with a flurry of uppercuts, causing the referee to stop it, much to Whiteford’s dismay.
Commentator John McCarthey believed the fight to be stopped early, and Whiteford certainly agreed.
