Haider looks annoyed but at least he's managed to land in guard.#T3# Hurst sitting in guard here, content to control. Haider wants to sweep here but Hurst controlling him for the moment. Hurst will need to keep those long limbs tucked in whilst he's on the ground, to prevent any submissions. Hurst is intent on slowing down the pace of the fight, simply looking to control. Hurst's ground tactics aren't going to win him many fans. Let's hope he's got fireworks for us if he gets back to his feet because he's not doing much on the ground.#T4# A few boos can be heard. I'm sure they will multiply if the fighters don't pick up the pace. Hurst wants to stand but Haider is controlling his posture from full guard. #REF3# The referee has decided to stand the fighters back up, so we'll restart on the feet. The crowd thankful this round is nearly over.#CL2# Haider clinches up against the cage. And that’s the end of the round – the fighters go back to their corners.
Philipp Haider dominated that round. That's the end of the interval. I'm sure that seemed a lot quicker than a minute for our two fighters! Back to the action. #R2# Hurst misses with a takedown attempt #KD2# and Haider counters with a crisp one two that drops Hurst! Haider thinks about following him to the mat for a moment but instead steps back and waves Hurst to his feet! Hurst is in big trouble!#ROC2# Hurst is rocked! Nice body kick from Haider. Oh Hurst is still all over the place! His legs are completely gone! Will he be able to recover?!! Haider throws a shot to the body.
Haider thuds a left hand into Hurst's body. Hurst backs away from a small jab... but Haider lunges forward with a huge superman punch! Hurst crumples to the ground as his mouth piece is sent flying! Haider with a spectacular finish!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:17 of round 2, we have a winner by way of KO (Superman Punch). Philipp Haider!
