Commentators Michael Schiavello and Pat Miletich are calling Lion Fight 21 the best night of fights in AXS TV history.

The muay Thai promotion returned on Friday and didn’t disappoint with highlight-reel stoppages and some brilliant performances.

In the main event, Tetsuya Yamato took it to super lightweight champion Kevin Ross right out of the gate and finished him off in the first round. And in the co-feature, Tiffany Van Soest booked a title fight in May with an absolutely dominant display against Chajmaa Bellekhal. Plus, Victor Saravia burst on the scene with a shutout of Sam Poulton, and Josh Shepard needed just 93 seconds to take out Jose Lopez with a vicious knee.

Check out the video highlights from Lion Fight 21, which aired on AXS TV from Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, Calif.
