McCaskill came out with conviction, landing an array of solid shots with both hands on the very athletic Williams.

Williams came out swinging as well, but was off-balanced for the power. She ended up on the canvas just a second before the 1st Round bell from taking a ginormous left hook upstairs from McCaskill.

McCaskill kept pressing her opponent into the ropes and unloading, pushing Williams to the brink of a second knockdown numerous times.

Williams, with her active background of multi-sports, military, stuntwork, and amateur boxing held in strong, but could not hold up as the referee saw enough and stopped the bout only 32 seconds into the 3rd Round.
