Absolute Championship Berkut 62 may have lost its originally planned main event between Alexandr Shabliy and Adam Townsend on the scales, but Akop Stepanyan was more than ready to close the show in style in Rostov-on-Don, Russia.

“Sniper” blistered Brazilian featherweight Felipe Cruz with punches, before absolutely wrecking his foe with a spinning wheel kick that sent referee “Big” John McCarthy into action late in the first round. The resounding KO punctuated a violent night in the cage, as all nine bouts at ACB 62 ended by knockout or submission.

The entire card is available now via the promotion's official Youtube channel.
