He proceeded to give fans a practical demonstration of the KOs. “A deep left body kick and then I came down and planted after a hard right hook.”
“That landed big time, that wobbled him a little bit. Then I did a switch stance. This was f***in sweet,” said Sugar as he performed a 180 leap before giving fans a sense of deja vu with his spinning kick. “It went over his head. I re-adjusted and threw,” ‘Sugar’ repeated the punch sequence, “and knocked his a** out.”
Sugar’ proceeded to walk-off again as his dog stared at him in bewilderment. He continued,“Then Cody’s was pretty cool this weekend. His was kinda like…”
O’Malley seemed a tad confused about how it was done before crouching, springing up and absolutely launching his fist into the dummy. “So that was pretty cool,” said ‘Sugar’ as he mocked ‘No Love’s post-KO walk.
Finally, the 25-year-old summed up by indicating that he preferred his own knockout.
