Ladies and gentlemen. This fight is 3 rounds, in the heavyweight division. Introducing the fighter to my left, fighting out of the red corner. With a record of
2 - 0 - 0, fighting out of New York, Mickey McMichaels! And introducing the fighter to my right, fighting out of the blue corner. With a record of
2 - 0 - 0, fighting out of New York, Jerpe Purge! The judges for this bout are Anthony Taglia, Steve Montenegro and Columbo Gatti.
The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Purge throws the overhand right but ducks down into a quick takedown attempt. McMichaels was covering up waiting for the punch and Purge finishes the takedown easily into guard. We've had a lack of effective grappling in the last minute or so, which could well see a referee standup. McMichaels has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Purge should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, McMichaels has tightened it up now! Purge should have reacted faster there - he's in big trouble and yes, he's tapped out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:18 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Mickey McMichaels!
