The guy got rocked early and then absolutly took it to Jardine, he must have drop him three or four times before putting him out cold and on his face with that last uppercut, i was shocked and amazed by this guy. This shook up the LHW division quite a bit.
What do you think?

Fairly shocked as well.... some of his shots looked like they physically relocated Jardine's posture... GG HA, you may kick some serious ass to come

I think it looked like he landed an illegal knee right before the last punch that completely put Jardine out, not that it mattered but i just think it looked that way.

In the replay you could see that the knee hit him in the chest so it wasnt illegal, it didnt matter any Jardine was far gone before that.

I agree it definetly was an illegal knee, but ya i dont think it would have mattered at all. Alexander was crazy though i was surprised after he was rocked like that. I never really have been to impressed by Jardine though.

He layed Jardine out a couple times before the knee so the wasent the factor for the win and the knee hit the chest of jardine which is compliently legal

i agree that the knee had no bearing at all on the outcome, but i still think from the angle's shown it looked debatable.

Not only was the knee to the chest, but techincally Jardine wasn't down either. He wasn't on a knee and both his hands were up.

Jardine was acting stupid with his hands way out and his face wide open.... seriously did he not get the memo that 07' is the year that anything can happen?

It was a good win for Houston, but an embarASSment for him in the way he acted after the stoppage.

Great comeback win by Houston, I'm in the St. Louis Area and I knew he was a tough guy but I didn't expect a win given the rust he had going into this fight. Congrats to him and his team, but I really hope he composes himself and show more due respect next time out.

Houston was a beast tonight. Never again will I bet against a man from East St. Louis. I've been there before....it makes Gary, Indiana look like Manaco.

I am not a big fan of Jardine so Alexander KO'ing him was just awesome.

Every uppercut seemed to buckle him or lift him up!
