Almeida re-took control in the second round when he landed a left hook that dropped Trizano. Trizano recovered but remained on the ground. Trizano got some offense in from bottom but couldn’t shake off Almeida, who accidentally headbutted Trizano to bust him open.
The two men traded from the second the third round started. It only lasted 55 seconds before Almeida dropped Trizano again and finished him on the ground.
This was Trizano’s first loss by KO/TKO.
