Heavyweight "Pee Wee" Dave Herman (12-0) TKO'd "Meat Truck" Kerry Schall (21-11) in 66 seconds Friday night in Hammond, east of Chicago.
The "W" was Herman's third under the ProElite umbrella, a promotion whose heavyweight division has been stung recently with champion "Big Foot" Antonio Silva's (11-1) positive test for banned substances and poster boy "Kimbo Slice" Kevin Ferguson's (3-1) 14-second KO loss.
The victory came by a combination of knees with Schall in Herman's Thai clinch and punches once Schall dropped.
