PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Wanderson Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mauricio Rua (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Silva might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Usher - More . Rua has chosen Usher-More Remix as his entrance music. Mauricio Rua has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Wanderson Silva's chin.

Ladies and gentlemen. This fight is 3 rounds, in the welterweight division. Introducing the fighter to my left, fighting out of the red corner. With a record of
10 - 3 - 0, fighting out of London, Wanderson Silva! And introducing the fighter to my right, fighting out of the blue corner. With a record of
8 - 8 - 0, fighting out of London, Mauricio Rua! The judges for this bout are Steven Brown, James Glass and Donald Grub.
The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Rua with a poor takedown and Silva counters with a nice single leg takedown and he's in Rua's guard now. The referee wants the fighters to be more active or he's going to reset them on the feet. Silva drops back looking for a heel hook - he quickly realises he's not going to get it but Rua manages to dive on top of him before he can escape and now Silva has Rua in his guard. Silva is working actively off his back, looking to secure an arm or perhaps work for a triangle. Silva had isolated an arm as going for a kimura. Rua defends it easily. Wooooo! Give it up for these two warriors! They are putting on a show! Silva working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Rua doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Silva is tightening it up a little... Rua has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Rua reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Rua taps out! Nice BJJ there by Silva!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:57 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle Choke). Wanderson Silva!
