Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Axel Montenegro (ranked 1632 p4p, 1549 weight class) and Padraig Ahearn (ranked 49 p4p, 48 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Montenegro might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Battle. Ahearn has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Man, I cannot wait for this one!

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Apollo Creed (ranked 409 p4p, 471 weight class) and Terry Tungsten (ranked 9 p4p, 11 weight class). Tungsten has chosen Cover of The Rolling Stone by Dr. Hook as his entrance music. Tungsten has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!

Panda has hold of a guillotine but he's not going to be able to crank on it really with only half guard, so it's no trouble for Blacktoe. Oh but Panda has got full guard now! Oh boy! This one could be over very soon! Blacktoe goes limp - he's gone! Panda jumps up and celebrates with the crowd - fantastic submission finish!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:37 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Guillotine). Laughing Panda!
