#ROC2# Morris is rocked! MacDonald lands a right hand that snaps the head of Morris backwards. Oh Morris is still all over the place! His legs are completely gone! Will he be able to recover?!! MacDonald displaying some good clinch control by pressing Morris up against the cage. The pace really dropping off here, momentarily. Morris is pressed against the cage. MacDonald pushes back and unleashes a big elbow that really hurts Morris! Two more big strikes from MacDonald and Morris crumples to the mat and taps out furiously due to the strikes!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:31 of round 3, we have a winner by way of Submission (Strikes). Pete MacDonald!
