The 28-year-old, nevertheless, wasn’t scared of the past, as he took a bold stand. Wolverine went into the attacking position and delivered a forceful blow to the defender. However, Turpin appeared unfazed, as he swiftly got back up and was ready to attack.
Austin Turpin struck Bata in the next round so forcefully that some of his facial hair dramatically came out, drawing attention from the commentators. The 28-year-old’s slap, though, was flagged for clubbing, giving Wolverine an advantage.
The rounds went on, and the athletes continued to land devastating strikes with pinpoint precision. However, the two of them progressed well throughout the event, making the competition tight, as they both had a minor point gap between them.
Wolverine struck Turpin first in the fifth round, but his blow wasn’t strong enough to knock him out. But the 28-year-old squared up to his rival and smacked him in the face. In the end, Austin Turpin came out victorious, as Wolverine was knocked out by his powerful slap. Despite his rapid recovery, he was unable to avoid falling, as this long-overdue triumph was a source of redemption for Turpin.
