PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Rj Bell (ranked 2832 p4p, 6311 weight class) and No Name (ranked 306 p4p, 563 weight class). I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that No Name was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Sloppy strikes from Bell. Those never looked like landing. Name gets a double leg takedown into Bell's guard. Name is trying to work a guillotine from the top, or something like that? Don't know how he thinks he's going to get a finish from there. Name seems content to control from guard here. He's going to have to remain active though if he doesn't want to get stood back up. Bell has his foot on Name's thigh. He's trying to push off and get in position for a triangle, I think. Name works his way back into a safe position though. Name is sitting in guard, working some ground and pound. Name drops back for a leg! It's a sloppy attempt though and Name jumps back into guard quickly, to retain the dominant position. We've had a slow start to the round here - hopefully the action picks up. Bell working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Name doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Name manages to throw the legs off his shoulder and he's back into guard - no problem. Bell looking for submissions off his back, moving his hips, looking for an opening.
That's one minute gone in the round. Name in full guard, throwing the ground and pound. No damage this time. Bell is looking for a guillotine. You can't force these things though and Name defends well. Name is looking to work some ground and pound but Bell has wrist control. Name avoids a guillotine attempt easily.
The ref warns both fighters not to hold the cage as they work up against the meshing. Bell working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Name doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Bell is tightening it up a little... Name has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Name reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Name taps out! Nice BJJ there by Bell!
