Brian Bowles vs.
Damacio Page
Round 1
Referee Chris Kinman officiates this bantamweight rematch. Both men swinging from the bell, with Page rushing Bowles with flying knees and huge punches. Bowles gets his bearings and starts to work his jab, but Page is still attacking with low kicks, spinning kicks and uppercut-hook combos. Another right leg kick connects from Page, but he eats a one-two. Bowles comes over the top with a right and scores with an uppercut. He ducks a huge right from Page, gets clipped by the wide left follow-up and then Page jumps him with a knee. Page chops at the left leg of Bowles and appears to catch the ex-champ with a finger in the right eye. An uppercut sends Page stumbling back and Bowles pounces, diving into guard and wailing away with punches and elbows. Page scrambles and dives at a leg, and Bowles drops back for a guillotine. Page goes to sleep almost instantly and Bowles notifies Kinsman his opponent is out. The fight is waved off at 3:30 of the first round, the exact same time it took Bowles to finish Page in their first meeting.
