Lucas Bahdi Stuns Ashton ‘H2O’ Sylve with Jaw-Dropping Sixth-Round Knockout

Lucas Bahdi vs. Ashton Sylve

Lucas Bahdi delivered one of the most jaw-dropping finishes in recent boxing history, scoring a sensational sixth-round knockout over Ashton “H2O” Sylve on the Jake Paul vs. Mike Perry card in Tampa.

Despite being dominated for most of the fight, Bahdi unleashed a devastating combination that ended Sylve’s night in dramatic fashion. The finish came after a wild exchange in the sixth round when Bahdi landed a stiff right hand that Sylve never saw coming.

With Sylve already dazed, Bahdi followed up with a vicious left hook that connected perfectly on the chin, sending the 20-year-old prospect crashing face-first to the canvas. The fight was stopped at 2:27 in the sixth round.

“I knew it was going to come,” Bahdi said confidently about the knockout. “I knew his head’s in the center all the time. He’s a great fighter. I think I stole the show tonight. I said [to him], keep your head up, kid. You’ve got a bright future. Keep at it.”

The circumstances surrounding the knockout made it all the more remarkable. For over five rounds, Sylve was in complete control, dominating every exchange and landing more than three times the number of punches Bahdi managed. There were moments when it seemed Bahdi’s toughness was working against him, as he absorbed punch after punch without backing down.

The momentum shift came late in the sixth round when Sylve made the critical decision to trade punches with Bahdi in close quarters. That choice proved costly. In the ensuing exchange, Bahdi landed the fight-ending combination that left Sylve motionless on the canvas. The arena held its breath as Sylve lay still for several moments before he finally got back to his stool and exited the ring under his own power.

With this victory, Bahdi remains undefeated and has secured the biggest win of his career. He’s now eyeing a spot on the highly anticipated event later this year, where Jake Paul is expected to face Mike Tyson in November.

Lucas Bahdi’s spectacular knockout has not only kept his record unblemished but also thrust him into the spotlight. Fans and critics alike are now eagerly awaiting his next move in the boxing ring.
