170 lbs Wipe vs Maia
Going into this fight you knew it would be a ground battle, and that’s exactly what we got with Wipe vs Maia. Wipe controlled the majority of the fight as he was the one able to land the takedowns of the fight but Maia was able to reverse position several times but ultimate it proved to be his undoing . It took 3 rounds of high level grappling but Wipe was finally able to secure a triangle and win the fight.
WINNER: Wipe via Submission (triangle) @ 2:25 rd 3
170 lbs Krajcik vs Ward
Krajciks game plan going into this fight was to use his superior Muay Thai to dominate in the clinch and that’s exactly what he did. Ward never stood a chance, he was barely able to land a strike, Krajcik on the other hand landed 88 strikes! Honestly Ward was lucky he even made it out of this fight after taking a beatdown like that.
WINNER: Krajcik via unanimous decision @ 5:00 rd 3

170 lbs Rice vs Williams
If you went to the bathroom at the beginning of this fight then you probably missed it. After two failed takedown attempts by Williams, Rice was able to get his timing down and send Williams into a mini coma with a violent hook. It was a very impressive debut for Rice.
WINNER: Rice via KO (punch) @ :22 rd 1

Our third fight of the 265 lb tournament was a good one, Miric started off good, winning the first round by avoiding Austin’s clinch attempt and landings some good punches. Austin did succeed later in the round with some dirty boxing and a takedown but it was too late. The second and third round was all Austin though, after a slow start he was able to work his gameplan. Austin moves to the next round of the Tournament.
