Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Shane Flint (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jason Willams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Flint comes to the cage accompanied by A Few More Rednecks. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Jason Willams was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Willams content to stall in guard here.
Flint has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Willams should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Flint has tightened it up now! Willams should have reacted faster there - he's in big trouble and yes, he's tapped out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:37 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Shane Flint!
