Biaggio Ali Walsh Knocks Out Opponent
Muhammad Ali's grandson, Biaggio Ali Walsh, delivered a stunning knockout in his latest amateur MMA fight. Facing Joel Lopez on the undercard of the Professional Fighters League 2024 final, Biaggio left his opponent face down with a big looping right hook in the second round. The referee quickly intervened as Biaggio celebrated his sixth knockout in as many fights.
Could This Be His Last Amateur Bout?
With the possibility of turning pro on the horizon, Biaggio hinted that this fight could be his last as an amateur. After the match, he expressed his gratitude for the experience and stated that he would sit down with his coach to discuss his future plans. An announcement is expected soon.
Biaggio's Path in the Professional Fighters League
Biaggio is currently signed with the Professional Fighters League (PFL), which consists of qualification and knockout stages. Fighters earn points based on their method of victory in two regular season bouts, with the top four in each division advancing. The competition culminates in a series of finale fights, where a title belt and a $1 million prize await the ultimate winner. Biaggio's impressive performance in the 2024 final, with a record of 6-1, may open the door for him to enter the lightweight season next year.
