We Start this night off with a couple of Lightweights throwin down for the BELT! What A WAY to Start off our Evening!!!

 "Pieter" Pieter Pieter vs Kaspars "The Big Dogger" Daugavins

Pieter enteres the octagon with a nearly perfect record of 4-1! While he is not known for his striking, he brings the rumble to the jungle once the fight goes to the mat, and he always ensures that it does! His wrestling is borderline illegal . . . in fact we have law officials octagon-side just in case a felony is committed . . . and his BJJ is on the right side of the law, but just barely and is still intimidating! The Big Dogger is a crowd favourite who brings some granite gloves to his corner. He could have been a boxing champion, but one day he ran into the Wandering Gracie brother, Ricky, and his passion sold Dogger into MMA 4 LIFE as Dogger's tattoo indicate. Not sure why it's on his lower back though, can you say Tramp Stamp?! THE BELL RINGS!!! Pieter shoots for a takedown! Dogger is somehow surprised by that! Dogger defends well as he finds himself in guard quickly! Pieter looks to sweep . . . Not yet! Dogger is trying to control here! Pieter's GnP isn't fighting its intended targets! But he is still in dominant position! Dogger looking to scissor sweep but Pieter declines the invitation! Pieter passes into Dogger's half guard! Pieter goes right for a Kimura! Dogger defends it nicely! Pieter is dropping some shots but all for a distraction as he switches in Full Mount!!! Oh that's bads news for the Dogger! Dogger defends some strikes and slips a leg in to slide back to half guard! Pieter is controlling here and Dogger senses that as he takes advantage back to full guard! Pieter expected that and drops back for a kneebar! The fighters roll over and Dogger slips out! Dogger dives right back into side control! Pieter controls and the round ends!

Round 2 - Dogger tosses a huge right but Pieter ducks it and dives in for a takedown! He's successful and finds himself Dogger's guard! Pieter misses with an elbow! Dogger uses the momentum and he's now in Pieter's guard! Dogger looking to improve his position and after much gesturing he gets to full mount! Pieter is defending well and looking for an exit strategy! The crowd is calling for action and Dogger is staying in control! REF Stand-up! Pieter stands up and wants right back down! He shoots for a takedown! Misses and shoot again! Success! He lands in side control! That takedown secured Pieter the round and has probably won the first two rounds!

Round 3 - Dogger comes forward with an uppercut and Pieter ducks it and drives ANOTHER successful takedown! I feel like this is a familiar trilogy and Dogger groans but is on his back once again! Pieter postures up and throws some haymakers! Dogger defending but for how long? Pieter stays active and Dogger is doing his best to be proactive! Pieter slips into half guard! Pieter keeps on softening Doggers' ribs! Dogger scrambles back to full guard! Dogger is working from the bottom! At least working at not getting his head caved in! Pieter goes after a kimura! Dogger defends but eats some Bunches of Punches for his effort! Pieter switches to an arm triangle but Dogger endures! Pieter is still the more aggressive fighter here! Pieter controls and still seems to be looking for a submission! But the round is over! That's three in the books and Pieter is clearly the dominant fighter here!

Round 4 - Dogger lands a jab! Pieter fakes high and shoots in! Dogger defends it! Dogger with another Jab! Pieter shoots but Dogger drive Pieter's face into the mat as he sprawls well! Pieter shoots again, misses, but lands a counter right on Dogger's button! Pieter really wants to take this down and shoots again! He eats a delicious Uppercut for his efforts! And Dogger follow with a hard body shot! Pieter is keeping his hands up and Dogger is breathing heavily from his mouth! Another good crack by Dogger! And the follow up jab misses and Pieter seizes his oppourtunity and drives a takedown home! He's in Dogger's guard! A place so familiar he may have to soon start paying rent here! He just lives in Dogger's guard now! Squatter's right my friends! Pieter drops and misses with an elbow and Dogger uses the momentum to reverse into Pieter's guard! Pieter bucks upwards and scrambles to home base, I mean Dogger's guard once more! The bell sounds and that's four rounds down! I imagine Dogger took that round in the judges eyes, but he still have some work ahead of him!

Round 5 - Pieter pushes the gas pedal and drives hard for a takedown! Dogger is exhausted and Pieter passes to mount! He is dropping bombs like Vietnams! Pieter is landing shots at will here! And his Will is Painful, Precise and PUNISHING! This fight is brought to you by the letter "P" which Pieter clearly enjoys a bit too much! Pieter shifts and pushes hard for an Armbar! Dogger holds and swings into the dominant position! Dogger is on top, but Pieter keeps working from the bottom! He is looking for a triangle, and Dogger is looking for literally Anything Else!!! Dogger wants to pass Pieter's guard but no luck! Dogger appears to be taking a small nap here and the Ref doesn't like it! Stand-Up!!! Dogger walks forward but Pieter drops and drives and Dogger can't defend so back down he goes! Pieter is dropping some token shots here! He is clearly in cruise control! Dogger is working from the bottom, but he is out-matched and stifled! Dogger is just holding on as the seconds tick down! The Bell Rings! That's it folks! Your Winner and STILL Lightweight Champion . . . "Pieter" Pieter Pieter!!!

Kerbouchard enters our octagon to the blue corner tonight! This half-Warrior half-Monster carries multiple Division II collegiate Wrestling titles on his resume! He may be a threat on top, but his Purple Belt BJJ is truly where he has honed his craft with three of his five victories in the Octagon coming via Submission! Kimbo enters in dancing hard to some Prodigy! Fittingly as a Prodigy he is! His Boxing Prowess is without equal North of the Border, and Hurricane Kimbo may head South depending on how this goes down!
