Ladies and gentlemen. This fight is 3 rounds, in the lightweight division. Introducing the fighter to my left, fighting out of the red corner. With a record of
12 - 1 - 0, fighting out of London, Rodney Smith! And introducing the fighter to my right, fighting out of the blue corner. With a record of
3 - 2 - 0, fighting out of Helsinki, Shannon Larratt! The judges for this bout are Johanna Lukiainen, Marco Blurstr�m and Tarja Halkonen.
 The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Smith tries to land a body kick
so Larratt counters with a double leg into guard. Good agility. In the pre-fight buildup videos we saw Larratt working his ground and pound in the gym. He isn't landing a great percentage of his ground strikes so far though.
Larratt has a momentary lapse of concentration, allowing Smith to throw up a leg and lock on what appears to be a pretty tight triangle! Larratt is fighting it off but it's all too little too late - Smith pulls down on the head and he's put Larratt to sleep! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:24 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Rodney Smith! A pretty intense looking Rodney Smith took the opportunity post-fight to ask for a shot at the title.
