The first round started off with them feeling each out on the feet as usual but quickly moving from stand-up to the ground to where the round finished. Each displaying high grappling skills Poclit was the more refined.
Second round quickly hit the canvas and Poclit was looking for a head-and-arm choke. Dante was scrambling to get out but both had their heads stuck in awkward positions. It wasn’t until Poclit got his head free and locked the choke tighter. The ref watching the action closely grabbed Dante’s hand and saw that he was knocked out quickly stopped the action.
