In the first fight of the Strikeforce heavyweight tournament, Sergei Kharitonov exposed Andrei Arlovski's glass chin, knocking him unconscious in the first round.Although Arlovski's boxing looked crisp in the early going, it wasn't long before Kharitonov connected with a hard punch, and when he did, Arlovski was stunned. A few more hard punches and Arlovski was out cold, and it looked ugly to see Arlovski asleep on the canvas.
"I trained very hard and saw so many people around here from Russia," Kharitonov said, saluting the Russian fans who had come out to see him. "I was nervous because Andrei is a very, very tough fighter. I hope we will become friends after the fight because I respect him."
