Silva flattens Ortiz, Belfort beats Holyfield in one at Triller Fite Club

Legends of the sweet science and mixed martial arts came together for one night to strut their wares in a boxing ring this Sunday morning at Triller Fite Club in Florida, USA.

In the main event, former heavyweight world champion Evander Holyfield suffered a first-round stoppage at the hands of ex-UFC light heavyweight world champion Vitor Belfort.

It was obvious from the get-go that the 58-year-old Holyfield had no business being inside the ring at his age as he moved like an old man as soon as he came out the corner.

He slipped after throwing a punch then got dropped with an uppercut from Belfort. He beat the count, only to be on the receiving end of a flurry which prompted the referee to halt the contest.

In the co-main event, former UFC middleweight world champion Anderson Silva needed just one round to dispatch former UFC light heavyweight world champion Tito Ortiz.

Ortiz, better known for his wrestling and not his hands, showcased why by throwing outrageous punches that missed their target.

Silva, 46, leaned on the ropes then threw a clubbing right hand then followed up with two left hooks that sent the 46-year-old Ortiz crashing to the canvas asleep.
