#R1#
The bell rings for round one and we are underway!
A head kick by De Beer misses #TD2#
and King counters with a driving takedown into guard. Nice work there by King.
King lands a couple of digs.
King won't allow De Beer to get back to his feet.
The fighters are pressed up against the cage, both looking to find a bit of space to work.#SUB2#
De Beer wants to stand and escape. He's got his foot on King's hips, looking to push off. But King grabs a hold of the leg and drops back for an ankle lock! It's hard to tell if he's got it. Both fighters look composed - OH, not anymore they don't! De Beer screams like a kid who's trapped his fingers in the car door and taps out! Yikes, that must have hurt - hopefully it's not snapped anything!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:29 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Heel Hook). Jason King! |
