Ladies and gentlemen. This fight is 5 rounds, for the welterweight championship of the world! Introducing the champion to my left, fighting out of the red corner. With a record of
6 - 0 - 0, fighting out of Los Angeles, Alex Santiago! And introducing the challenger to my right, fighting out of the blue corner. With a record of
6 - 1 - 0, fighting out of Los Angeles, Gustavo Meranda! The judges for this bout are Timothy Bukovac, Jack Bonds and Don Winkell.
The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Meranda shoots in for a takedown from distance. He catches Santiago napping and manages to drive through into side control! 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. We may be looking at a referee standup if the pace doesn't pick up soon. Meranda is trying to land an Americana. He has the arm isolated but Santiago is keeping cool and he's avoided the danger for now. Meranda has worked his way into a potential kimura here. Santiago is trying to get out of the position but his squirming has just got him deeper into trouble. Meranda yanks on the arm and Santiago is forced to tap due to a very painful looking submission! Nice work by Meranda.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:23 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kimura). Gustavo Meranda! Gustavo Meranda retains his welterweight title!
