![](https://www.mmatycoon.com/images/fight/round1.jpg) The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Batista slaps away a takedown attempt from Maia, before circling back to the center of the mat. Batista is breathing heavily.
Batista gets caught flat footed, as Maia shoots in with a quick takedown into guard.
Maia drops back for a leg here. A bit of a high risk move... He's looking for a kneebar by the looks of things. Now both of them are looking for submissions. Maia seems to have locked his on tight now - Batista screams in pain and taps out furiously! It certainly was a high risk move but it's paid off for Maia, as he picks up the win!
