While most were preparing for UFC 252 later tonight (Sat., Aug. 15, 2020) live on ESPN+ pay-per-view (PPV), Top Rank Boxing sneaked in a boxing card on ESPN headlined by former WBA (Super) featherweight champion Carl Frampton (28-2) and it ended with an odd TKO finish.
Frampton, who is trying to rebuild his momentum after dropping a decision to Josh Warrington back in 2018, went toe-to-toe with Englishman Darren Traynor (16-4). While Frampton was the favorite to take care of business atop the Top Rank Boxing card, Traynor gave the Irishman a run for his money.
Luckily for Frampton, he was able to take control midway through the fight and land a beautiful left hook to the body. Traynor covered up and then oddly waved the fight off himself.
Check out the finish below:

Hopefully this isn’t the only knockout finish fight fans see tonight as UFC 252 is currently underway, but this may be the weirdest out of the bunch.
What do you think, Maniacs?
