Ladies and gentlemen. This fight is 3 rounds, in the super heavyweight division. Introducing the fighter to my left, fighting out of the red corner. With a record of
0 - 0 - 0, fighting out of Sydney, Gerry Chandler! And introducing the fighter to my right, fighting out of the blue corner. With a record of
0 - 0 - 0, fighting out of Sydney, Tateum Titain! The judges for this bout are Hugh Johnson, Eliza Hachem and Damien Edna.
The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Titain checks a low kick. Bone on bone - not my idea of a good time. Chandler throws the kick towards the body but Titain avoids it. A punch combination from Titain misses. Titain thows a left - swing and a miss! Titain finds nothing but air with that leg kick attempt.
Titain throws a monster uppercut resembling something out of street fighter but it doesn't land. Chandler doesn't manage to clinch there - Titain circles away.
Chandler doesn't react quick enough there as he takes a shot to the body. Titain throws a hook but Chandler avoids it easily. Titain misses with a series of wild punches.
Nice takedown defense from Titain. No joy for Chandler on that attempt. Chandler closes the distance, clinches up and gets a nice trip takedown into side control. Very smooth. We could do with one of the fighters taking the initiative a bit more on the ground - they're both waiting to capitalize on a mistake. Chandler scores with a couple of short elbows. Titain really doesn't want to stay on the ground with Chandler. If he can't get it back to his feet, it's only a matter of time before he'll be tapping out. Chandler has hold of Titain's arm here. He's working for an Americana. It looks like he might have it! Titain tries to escape but he's just digging himself in deeper - Chandler cranks the arm and Titain screams in pain! The ref makes a decision and ends the fight before the tap - no complains from Titain, who is just happy to have his arm attached to his body.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:58 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Americana). Gerry Chandler! Gerry Chandler gave a mention to West Coast Apparel in his post fight interview. That will please them (and hopefully generate some sales).
