#R1# MacDonald lands a nice hook to Mane's body. Mane takes it in his stride and looks to land his own strikes. We can't be sure of the tactics at this early stage but we have heard that Mane has been working on his takedowns a lot in the buildup to the fight and we can only assume he's going to look to take this to the mat. MacDonald lands the left hand. The fighters circling - MacDonald throws out the jab but it was never going to land. MacDonald lands a head shot. Mane tries to close the distance and clinch up against the cage but MacDonald paws at him with a jab and circles away. MacDonald scores with a sloppy right hand. Mane should have avoided that one. #TD2# Mane drives through with a really nice takedown into side control. MacDonald tries to wriggle free to get back to his feet but he's given up his back! Oops. We've seen a great period of action over the last minute or so - credit to both fighters for going all out! Mane has the hooks sunk in and you can see the will to fight slowly draining out of MacDonald's body.
The fighters are pressed up against the cage, both looking to find a bit of space to work. It looks like Mane might be adopting somewhat of a lay and pray gameplan here, which I'm sure won't go down too well with the paying fans in attendance... Or the ring announcers come to think of it.#T1# MacDonald is trying to stand back up. So, who will make the next big move? In this position it could be crucial.
Mane lands with a couple of good shots - one to the side of the head and one questionable shot that could be viewed as to the back of the head but the referee lets it go.
#T2# There's not a lot going on here and the crowd are letting the fighters know they're not willing to tolerate a lack of action. Mane has good solid back control here. MacDonald trying to get back to his feet but Mane is in full control for now. Good control from Mane.

#ROC2#MacDonald is rocked!#SUB2# Mane is working on the RNC. He looks like he's got it but MacDonald won't tap... Oh, he's out! The ref rips Mane off his unconscious opponent!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:38 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (RNC). Josh Mane! |
