JOE BRAMMER VS. MARK BOCEK

Round 1 - A spattering of applause for both fighters. Referee Herb Dean in charge of the evening's first bout. A touch of gloves, and we're underway. Brammer opens with a low kick, then high. Bocek fires back a few stiff hands that are blocked. Brammer sticks with the kicking attack as the pair circles the cage. Bocek lands a nice right hand and clinches against the cage. Bocek scores with knees from the clinch before Brammer backs away. Bocek and Brammer trade hands, before Bocek shoots in. Quick trip, though Brammer pops back up. Bocek grabs him again and scores a thunderous suplex. Bocek gets both hooks on the floor and looks for the choke. He's a bit high, but Bocek re-adjusts and rolls to his own back. Brammer forced to fight off the choke halfway through the frame. Brammer scrambles to his feet, but Bocek is glued to the back. Bocek's corner tells him to relax, and he patiently works in the rear-naked choke with the right arm. With Brammer still standing, the choke is deep. He has no choice but to tap. Mark Bocek def. Joe Brammer via submission (rear-naked choke) - Round 1, 3:36.

**Chivo** · 12-05-2009, 11:07 PM

I thought strikes, but I will take it. Hope they show the "thunderous" suplex on Spike later.

Left Hook · 12-05-2009, 11:07 PM

Damn didn't expect Bocek to finish.

Bishop · 12-05-2009, 11:21 PM

I'm curious as to know how 97.8% of you knew and picked Bocek to win by a sub in the first....what do I not know?

**Chivo** · 12-05-2009, 11:24 PM

Damn, noticed I had Rd 2 as well.

Stupid Sleeper Hold...

There’s 30 minutes left and nothing is going on. Howard’s corner is yelling at Rosenthal that Hallman isn’t doing anything but keeping Howard down. 10-9 Hallman.

LOL:

Joe Stevenson cageside, and he's begging Logan and Natasha for a shot at their jobs. Octagon mom vetoes, and Stevenson heads to his seat. Building about half-full at this point, and Stann and Wallace making their way to the cage.

the fuck is an "Octagon Mom"?

**Chivo** · 12-06-2009, 12:10 AM

BOOOO, ShoNuff only loses to Bruce Leroy. I call fix.

I want to see Stevenson waltz around the cage in a bikini with a ringcard. I know it's gay, but I want to see it.
