KJ Noons solidified his mark in MMA by defeating Yves Edwards via TKO last night at Elite XC’s show in Corpus Christi, Texas. The two fighters engaged in a stand up battle where Edwards landed a nice combo and went into attack mode, but was met with a right from Noons that dropped the Bahamian-American fighter. After a barrage of strikes on the ground the bout was stopped 48 seconds in. Noons retains his 160 pound belt and improves to 6-2.
