That's one minute gone in the round. Wade controls the position. Oh Mcracken is still in real trouble! Will he be able to recover?!! It looks like Wade might be adopting somewhat of a lay and pray gameplan here, which I'm sure won't go down too well with the paying fans in attendance... Or the ring announcers come to think of it.
