This was the strangest fight that I have ever seen.

The fight starts and Pajkic dominates with roundhouse hooks.
Sidon was sure to go down but he didn't. He lasted all 8 rounds

The 7th round saw Pajkic knock Sidon down temporarily.
Pajkic also got a big cut over his eye due to a head clash and that was the most exciting part of the
fight.
