Ladies and gentlemen. This fight is 3 rounds, in the middleweight division. Introducing the fighter to my left, fighting out of the red corner. With a record of
3 - 1 - 0, fighting out of Rio de Janeiro, Zeburdiah Zappatista! And introducing the fighter to my right, fighting out of the blue corner. With a record of
4 - 1 - 0, fighting out of Rio de Janeiro, Royce Gracie! The judges for this bout are Leandro Rodrigues, Luis Engracia and Alexandre Firmino.
The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Zappatista misses with a hook. Gracie ducked under it nicely. Zappatista tries to close the distance and clinch but Gracie swats him to one side with an open hand palm strike and circles away. Zeburdiah Zappatista seems to be the more aggressive standup fighter in this bout. Gracie scores a trip takedown into side control. Nice. Zappatista regains half guard. Gracie is trying a forearm choke… I don't think that's going to do much at this level of the game.
The fighters are battling for position here. Zappatista manages to regain full guard. Nice work. Zappatista has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Gracie should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Zappatista has tightened it up now! Gracie should have reacted faster there - he's in big trouble and yes, he's tapped out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:45 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Zeburdiah Zappatista!
