Hermansson was giving away the first round ..may be looking for the 2nd and 3rd to take advantage on Santos expending a lot of energy in the 1st ..
it’s disappointing to see the fight get finished in the 1st round … it would have been a much competitive fight if it went further
but props for Santos for his fierce striking
stoppage was ..alright .. but could have let go for the next .. can’t blame the referee though … Hermansson was covering up doing nothing
