Hassan Mohammad told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

Oh but Rett is tightening it up a little... Kozlov has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Kozlov reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Kozlov taps out! Nice BJJ there by Rett!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:02 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle Choke). Randon Rett!
Randon Rett is the new welterweight champion!
