Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Max Hatred (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Doe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hatred comes to the cage accompanied by Jose Esposito - You're the best around. Doe has chosen Fight to win ft. Destorm as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.

Carvalho looking for the choke but no joy.
Carvalho tries to keep control of the position but Starrkey is staying busy.
Carvalho is looking to finish the fight by rear naked choke. Starrkey knows exactly what he's got planned though, so he's defending well. Maybe a few strikes would soften Starrkey for a finish.
Carvalho is working for the choke. I would put my money on him to finish from this position. He's rolled onto his back and has dragged Starrkey with him. Starrkey is trying to defend but Carvalho has an arm under the chin now! Starrkey grimaces and is forced to tap out!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:03 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (RNC). Andrew Carvalho!
A loyal slave to those sponsorship dollars, Andrew Carvalho made sure he mentioned Crippler's Corner, along with how happy he was to win his fight.
