Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Terry Hope (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Abraham Rokou (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Abraham Rokou was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

9 - 2 - 0, fighting out of Amsterdam, Terry Hope! And introducing the challenger to my right, fighting out of the blue corner. With a record of
1 - 6 - 0, fighting out of Amsterdam, Abraham Rokou! The judges for this bout are Aafke Stam, Albert Achterberg and Paulsen Ambrosius.
The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Hope has taken the fight to the clinch.
Rokou's coach down at Titan Gym was telling us pre-fight that they have been working on Rokou's balance. Obviously they view that as a key factor in the outcome of this fight. Rokou lands a hook to the side of the head. Rokou has picked Hope up - he's going for a ride! Rokou dumps his opponent to the mat with a thud and settles into half guard. We may be looking at a referee standup if the pace doesn't pick up soon. Hope is pressing down on Rokou's left leg trying to get back to full guard. He's managed it. Hope has thrown up a leg looking for a triangle. Rokou doesn't defend quickly enough and Hope has managed to lock this one up! Can Rokou escape?! NO! He's tapping out! Damn, that was a quick submission - congrats to Hope on a fantastic submission victory.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:29 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Terry Hope! Terry Hope retains his light heavyweight title!
