0 - 0 - 0, fighting out of Los Angeles, Anthony Johnson! And introducing the fighter to my right, fighting out of the blue corner. With a record of

The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Matic fails with a takedown attempt. Matic takes a shot right to the liver - Bas would have been proud of that punch. Matic changes levels and looks for a double leg takedown. Johnson tries to avoid it but Matic manages to keep hold of a leg and drag Johnson to the ground. Johnson escapes though and pops straight back up to his feet. Matic shoots in for a takedown. "Ole!" shouts Johnson as he jumps to the side. Anthony Johnson has stuffed three takedown attempts in the round now. That's going to take a lot out of Bogdan Matic. Johnson lands a vicious shot with the stealth of a sniper and the strength of a viper. Are vipers that strong? I can think of lots of things that are stronger than a viper - not many rhyme with sniper though.
Johnson throws a hook to the body but it doesn't connect.
Anthony Johnson seems to be the more aggressive standup fighter in this bout. Johnson connects with a jab.
Matic is rocked! Matic is looking to clinch. Matic is still on wobbly legs! Can Johnson finish him? Matic switches off momentarily and Johnson cracks him with a monster right hand! Matic topples backwards and makes a semi conscious attempt to cover up, as Johnson dives in to land one more shot, before the referee has time to call the fight. What a finish by Johnson!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:47 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Anthony Johnson!
