PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Al Barru (ranked 2435 p4p, 2408 weight class) and Sam Salter (ranked 140 p4p, 139 weight class). Salter is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Dead Or Alive. 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 Sam Salter was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Barru is looking for a takedown here. He's shot in and has managed to get it, finishing up in Salter's half guard.
Barru looks exhausted already! Oh dear, he should have come in in better shape than this!

Salter looking for submissions from an awkward position here.

Salter has hold of a guillotine but he's not going to be able to crank on it really with only half guard, so it's no trouble for Barru. Oh but Salter has got full guard now! Oh boy! This one could be over very soon! Barru goes limp - he's gone! Salter jumps up and celebrates with the crowd - fantastic submission finish!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:25 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Guillotine). Sam Salter!
Post fight, Sam Salter took to the microphone: 'I told you im not all hype. Im the best and I just proved it by beating the number 1 guy in the org. Give me my title shot.'.
