Asofa-Solomona quickly worked his opponent out, finding his distance before collecting Latimore with a punch that floored him. Latimore could do nothing but lay flat on the canvas.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was huge and he has sent him down hard… Nelson Asofa-Solomona, we knew it was the upper cut most likely,\u201d Ben Damon said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen it came it was brutal, a one-punch highlight reel from Nelson in his professional debut.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was never chance of getting up, try as you might.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shawn Porter also added: \u201cIt\u2019s a punch that you don\u2019t see coming, Latimore never saw that coming\u201d.<\/p>\n
