#R1# Pehela's corner calls for a 1, 2 combination and Pehela duly obliges. Ponting lands a really nice looking cross but Pehela seems unphased.
#CUT2# It looks like Chhedi Pehela has been cut. Pehela throws a looping left and ducks down for a takedown. He's got his arms around Ponting's waist but Ponting gets an underhook and avoids the takedown by throwing Pehela off to one side. Horrible takedown attempt by Pehela or perhaps it was just good defense by Ponting, which made it look bad. Pehela takes a body punch but keeps moving. Ponting loads up on a big right hand but Pehela slips the punch. Pehela seemed to be looking to counter by closing the distance. Ponting misses with a looping right. Ponting looks more muscular than last time we saw him. He must have been on the weights. Nice defenses there by Pehela. Pehela appears to be looking for a counter takedown. Ponting throws a body shot but no joy. Ricky Ponting seems to be the more aggressive standup fighter in this bout. Both fighters step back and shake their arms out. Ponting engages and cracks Pehela with a massive lead left hook - Pehela tumbles to the floor, out cold! What a shot! Ponting is delighted - all that hard work in training paid off!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:45 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Punch). Ricky Ponting! A very excited looking Ricky Ponting made sure he remembered to thank all the fans both in the arena and on the internet. He said all the coolest people spend all day on MMA websites, which got a big reaction.
