Netflix star Chase DeMoor faces 12-month ban after continuing to punch KO'd opponent

Reality TV star Chase DeMoor fears he could face a year-long suspension from boxing after continuing to punch his knocked out opponent in his comeback fight.

DeMoor, a former college football player and star of Netflix's Too Hot To Handle, brutally stopped YouTuber Stevie Knight within a round of his second professional fight on Friday night in New Orleans. The heavyweight star had been mocked relentlessly for his farcical showing last time out against Josh Brueckner, and rebuilt himself as a fighter for five months afterwards.

He looked a changed man in the ring on the night, dropping Knight twice and landing another knockdown that wasn't scored before ultimately landing the finish. However, controversy ensued when after his rival hit the floor he continued to throw eight punches at his downed opponent leading to a DQ finish and his record moving to 0-2.
