Herbert Goodman Wins at M-1 Challenge
Date submitted: 31 March 2009
Author: Michael Bower
    
 
  
When former NFL running back Herbert Goodman left M-1: Challenge - Bulgaria (28 Mar 2009) in Bourgas on Saturday night, he did so under the impression that he had suffered his sixth career loss. However, Goodman was informed a few short hours later by M-1 Challenge officials that the decision had been overturned and that he had recorded his ninth career victory courtesy of a second round knockout over ex-UFC veteran Jordan Radev.
 
Goodman was matched up against the former Bulgarian National wrestling team member as a part of a best-of-five head-to-head match between Team USA East and the host country, Team Bulgaria. The overturned decision allowed USA East to walk away with a 5-0 shutout over the Bulgarians.
 
Radev was originally ruled the winner of the fight via unanimous decision. However, the 32-year old veteran was knocked out cold by Goodman with just seconds remaining in the final round. With the referee deciding that the knockout took place a split second after the bell, the fight was turned over to the judges' scorecards, with Radev being announced as a winner.
 
However, a formal appeal was lodged by Team USA East manager and replays showed that Goodman's knockout transpired just prior to the end of the fight.
 
"Upon further video review, it has been determined that the knockout punch occurred prior to the bell ending round 2," International Mixfight Association President Eno Alberga wrote in a released statement. "As such, the punch was legal, and is thus counted... It has been determined that the protest filed by Team USA East is upheld, and the initial ruling on this fight has been overturned."
