Looking to settle the no-contest call that ended their previous meeting at Fight Lab 55, Kenneth Crowder wasted no time laying into Kevin Schroder at Fight For It IX. After scoring a quick takedown, Crowder kept Schroder pinned in guard with heavy wrestling pressure and a battery of ground and pound that left Schroder’s face swollen and visibly bruised. With only seconds left in the first round, the referee called a stop to the fight, awarding Crowder the victory by TKO.
With this victory, Crowder moves to 4-3-1 as a professional, while Schroder slides to 0-3-1.
