Big Country is awesome. Bigfoot did pretty good until that uppercut of death came at his way. I just finished watching it, the sound of my stream was like 20seconds ahead of the visual at the last round so yes, it did kinda piss me off to hear BIG FOOT WITH A KNOCKOUT while the fight looked far from over :D
