Artem Lobov has recorded his second victory in the bare-knuckle. Just after 9 months of his victory over Jason Knight, Lobov defeated the 2-time world champion boxer Paulie Malignaggi on June 22 at the Florida State Fairgrounds Expo Hall in Tampa, Florida.
Some months of trash talking, bad mouth, and spitting finally led the two fighters to meet in the Bare Knuckle FC ring but was Artem's day today.
Also Popular as The Russian Hammer and the Goat, Artem had an edge win over Paulie with the judges score 48-47. But the Magic Man wasn't happy with the score as he believed he was the one who actually should have been winning.
"I thought I was winning pretty easily. I felt I pretty much outboxed him the whole way. I'm pretty sure my right hand is broken."
Paulie said.
The result shocked many fight fans. Here are some of the popular fans and fighters reaction.

Paulie Malignaggi, whose face is all sliced up, thinks he really only got hit with one clean punch all night. The rest must have been him sticking his head in a ceiling fan.

McGregor smashed him in sparring too. Know that.
