There had to be times in the round that the ref considered stopping Snell from continuing. The comeback was one for the ages, and after the fight, Snell had a theory on how was able to come back. "I think he got tired of beating on me, and I was able to capitalize."

The win snapped a 3- fight winning streak for the fighter out of China, Sumudaerji.
