| Martin Kampmann vs. Alexandre Barros
Round 1
After a slow start to the bout, Barros looks to land an inside-leg kick. Kampmann moves backwards and the kick slaps his cup directly. Clearly in pain, Kampmann lies on the Octagon floor and uses his full allotted time to recover. When the action is resumed, Kampmann lands a crisp body kick and initiates a couple of knees from the Thai plum. Barros drops levels for a takedown and is caught in a guillotine choke. Barros escapes and gets a lateral drop to take Kampmann’s back. Referee Kevin Mulhall stands up the fighters before the round expires. Barros takes the first, 10-9.
Round 2
Kampmann works from the clinch early in the second stanza and takes the top position on the floor following a scramble. Working over his opponent with punches, Kampmann finds the opening to take mount. Hurting Barros with a number of shots, Kampmann moves to the back, where he finishes Barros at 3:07 of the second after Mulhall had seen enough. |
