The former All Blacks centre Sonny Bill Williams has stepped into the ring since retiring from professional rugby and last night he got knocked out by Mark Hunt, Hunt is known for having a serious right hook and he defiantly showed that last night as he put Sonny Bill on the floor. See the highlights below;

Mark Hunt might not look like an athlete, but boy can he hit and Sonny Bill Williams certainly felt the full force of his fist last night. Cracking fighter and at 48 years of age, he can finally walk away from the ring with a legendary career. Will we see Sonny Bill fight again at some stage? Time will tell, certainly a great athlete.
