The bell rings for round one and we are underway!
Tatov takes a jab on the nose there. A little bit of blood seems to be coming out. Hopefully that won't affect his breathing.
Tatov looks gassed!
Tatov glances at the clock... BAM! Cook nails him with a big right hand! A momentary lapse in concentration sends Tatov crashing to the mat! The referee steps in and this one is over! Damn, Tatov is out of it, he thinks the ref is his opponent!
