PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Esra Pound (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sal Kelly (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Esra Pound had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.4lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Sal Kelly told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Kelly gets his takedown attempt stuffed easily and Pound counters with a nice double leg into side control. Kelly won't be happy with that. Kelly tries to get back to half guard but can't. Kelly manages to work his way to half guard, despite Pound's best efforts. Kelly makes his way to full guard. A much better position for Kelly. Pound lands a couple of elbows. Kelly is working actively from the bottom, looking for submissions. He's escaped his hips to the side and he's going for an armbar! Pound has his hands clasped together but Kelly extends an breaks Pound's desperate grasp, forcing a tap out due to armbar! Nice BJJ displayed there by Kelly.
