0 - 0 - 0, fighting out of Sydney, Sammy Crooke! The judges for this bout are Hugh Johnson, Damien Edna and Bruno Hogan.
The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Crooke shoots in for a takedown! He's got it and he's managed to land in side control! That's better than Crooke was expecting from the takedown attempt, I'm sure! The referee wants the fighters to be more active or he's going to reset them on the feet. Morse is trying to control Crooke's posture but Crooke avoids it. Crooke just content to control the position. Morse tries to work a leg under to get back to half guard but Crooke wriggles his own leg back out and remains in side control. Crooke creates some space and throws a big elbow, but Morse sees it coming and moves his head just enough to avoid the strike. Crooke is maintaining the dominant position - no doubt Morse will start to get frustrated soon if he's not already. Crooke lands some shots froms side control.
That's one minute gone in the round. Morse tries to get back to half guard but can't. Crooke connects with a decent looking elbow from side control that caused Morse some visible discomfort.
Morse tries to improve position but can't. Crooke tries for an arm triangle. That looks pretty tight to me. Is this one over!?! Possibly, maybe, no Crooke has let go of the choke. Obviously it wasn't as tight as we thought! Crooke advances to mount.
That's two minutes gone in the round. Crooke takes a little breather and maintains the position. The referee will be looking for him to stay active from such a dominant position though. It looks like Crooke 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. Crooke has hold of an arm here, looking to extend it. He's committed to the armbar attempt here! Will he get it?! Yes! Morse is forced to tap!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:54 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Sammy Crooke!
