Weekend Rundown: Petruzelli Mashes Mewborn at WEF 46

Well-traveled “Silverback” Seth Petruzelli bounced back from consecutive defeats with a sound stoppage of Atlanta’s Dave Mewborn on Friday in the main event of World Extreme Fighting 46.
After having the hype from a four-fight win streak -- which included his famous October 2008 knockout of Kevin “Kimbo Slice” Ferguson -- halted by back-to-back losses inside the UFC, Petruzelli was in need of a solid win. The 31-year-old Floridian got just that before a partisan crowd at UCF Arena in Orlando, Fla., as he used quick and heavy hands to pound Mewborn to a technical knockout at 3:06 of the opening round.
The win was Petruzelli’s 12th career finish, raising his overall mark to 13-6. Of his six losses, four have come inside the Octagon, where Petruzelli has never had his hand raised.
Originally scheduled to feature 47-year-old Ken Shamrock against French veteran Antony Rea, the WEF 46 co-main event was reshuffled just days before the show when Shamrock withdrew due to staph infection. Read more -
