Joe shoots in for a takedown and gets it. Oh and he's advanced to full mount straight away. Joe lands a big shot there that rocks Zaycev but he's holding on and managing to survive for now.
Zaycev really does look like a pencil wearing a pair of gloves. Let's hope he has a gameplan to suit that ridiculous body shape. Joe lands an elbow that was bordering on illegal but the referee lets it go with a warning.
