An amateur fight at SSP Fight Night 46 ended in brutal fashion last weekend.
In the post-lim following the main event in Commerce, Calif., lightweights Emon Baker and Richard Treiu squared off. Shortly after the fight began, it ended – in devastating fashion.
The bout lasted only 18 seconds by MMA Junkie’s stopwatch. It ended with Baker slamming Treiu into the mat, rendering him unconscious.
WEC and Bellator veteran Chad George coaches Baker. In a post on Instagram, George weighed in on finish and stated Treiu “ended (up) being OK and was transported to the hospital.”
“His opponent ended being OK and was transported to the hospital after for check ups.
This is the reason you have to have a good school, good coaches and train properly. So many people think they can just get into the sport because it “looks” easy.
I hate seeing people get hurt but unfortunately it does come with the territory.”
