Former Steelers All-Pro offensive guard Carlton Haselrig defeated Carlos Moreno via TKO when Moreno was no longer able to continue after Round 1 at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. on Saturday.

Commentary: Haselrig is the only collegiate wrestler to ever win six NCAA wrestling titles (three in Division II and three in Division I). He is also well known for having defeated Kurt Angle back in college.

Perhaps even more amazing than all of that is the fact that Haselrig is 42 years old. He lifted his MMA record to 2-0 after ground and pounding his way to victory over Moreno.
