The PFL Pittsburgh night is young, but Josh Fremd chose violence and made the crowd loud early, courtesy of a hard-hitting knockout of Jarrah Al-Silawi.
Al-Silawi showed flashes of strength early on, particularly with his grappling. On the feet, however, Fremd was at a clear advantage with his striking.
Fremd added in takedowns, scoring some decent ground-and-pound. While Al-Silawi looked to score a late submission, particularly with an armbar threat, Fremd escaped and continued to pound away from the top.
Then, back on the feet, Silawi attempted to come forward — only for Fremd to land a brutal counterpunch that faceplanted Silawi out cold for the win.
