Ring found continued success in the second landing crisp combinations and peppering Camozzi with a stiff jab and relentless pressure. Ring kept his hands a bit higher and found a rhythm that put Camozzi out of his game. Ring went out of the second that, besides a knee, he seemed to control handily.
