Round 1
Fedor is seen in his bouncing, orthodox style. Bader is also shown in the orthodox style, but with a jerky motion.
Fedor tries a lead right early. Bader gets a right, and Fedor takes it down. Bader is putting pressure.
Fedor eats a left hook that bloodies the nose.
They get in an engagement, and Bader scores an amazing uppercut on Fedor! They swing wildly together! Fedor is caught by Bader again, and he falls to the ground. Fedor is still there, but Bader chases him down. He’s now in the guard and trying to get elbows.
Fedor is trying to defend and recover. Bader scores some great shots, and is now at half guard. Bader gets HAMmed on some hammerfists, and Fedor takes care of the rest! Bader holds onto his backside and moves away. Fedor attempts to move, but is unable due to more powerful shots by Bader! Fedor keeps pushing him, and Herb Dean intervenes.
Sadly predictable.
