Transcript

00:00Hellish, you'll never do it again. He weighed 249 pounds against Lane, 250 this week.

00:05With the official introductions, here's Joe.

00:09Well, five fans, here we go.

00:11Peterson told us this week that he's going to wrestle this time.

00:14He's not going to let his ego get in the way, go back to what's good for him.

00:17But he's been working on finishing the fights when he gets them down.

00:22They touch him up.

00:24Round one ahead. Three rounds if we need them.

00:26Petrino, where's the yellow?

00:28I'm going to keep reminding you, he is a former light heavyweight, but it's every part of the heavyweight monster.

00:34It's crazy that he was a light heavyweight.

00:37That said, left hand from Peterson, there's the first attempt.

00:41He looks strong as well, just shut that off.

00:44Yeah, no problem.

00:47Petrino, but Peterson's still got the double underhooks.

00:5250-50 now.

00:53This is a good idea, though, for Peterson.

01:03You know, when you look at all the muscle mass on Vito Petrino, that does come at a price.

01:08So force the big muscle-bound man to wrestle.

01:12Peterson's very complimentary about the looks of Petrino as well, wasn't he?

01:15Yeah, I was in.

01:16Very good-looking guy, model good looks.

01:18That was the first thing that he spoke about.

01:24He's going to try and make this as ugly as he possibly can.

01:30Almost had it there.

01:33Peterson actually did a really good job to not end up underneath there.

01:37So now it's Petrino on the single leg.

01:40Is that all right?

01:42You want to wrestle?

01:43Let's give it a go.

01:44Yeah.

01:46Peterson's stuck in the head.

01:58So Peterson's not using a guizzer with that right arm.

02:03And he's choosing to throw shots.

02:04Maybe he doesn't feel like there's a threat there.

02:06But typically, that's kind of a mistake.

02:09You want to always defend the position first.

02:12Big zap on the hook.

02:13There it is.

02:14On the near side.

02:15Now he's going to try and rotate him, turn him off the fence.

02:20But again, you know, when they're clinched like this,

02:23using a lot of gas for Petrino,

02:27force him to wrestle because Peterson's been doing that his entire life.

02:30Yeah.

02:30This time, it's Peterson that drops down for the single.

02:36Head outside single this time.

02:39Good defense though by Deto Petrino.

02:45Oh, nice duck under.

02:51Half the round done.

02:52Trino working on the grip.

03:01He's got a Kimura grip.

03:04Double wrist lock to try and counter.

03:07You know, in a situation like this,

03:23I get it for Peterson,

03:25but sometimes I don't mind seeing him just release

03:29four combinations and then shoots again.

03:31Because you have the opportunity to run.

03:38Oh, he gets buzzed.

03:41That's a huge shot.

03:43Big shot here for Petrino.

03:45This could be over.

03:48He's all over him.

03:50That was a huge right hand.

03:53Punched him out, Peterson.

03:54Peterson's got to get an underhook with that right arm.

04:03Get on the left elbow,

04:05try and build the base.

04:09Stop.

04:10But.

04:12Mouthpiece.

04:12Peterson says,

04:19thank you very much,

04:20Mr. Referee.

04:21And they get back to it.

04:23And here comes the smash from Petrino.

04:28Oh,

04:29is that an equipment failure there that we see?

04:33Is that just the design of the shorts?

04:35What are you looking at?

04:37Very open on the side of the shorts there.

04:40No?

04:41That's the style.

04:42That's the style.

04:43Excuse me.

04:45He opted for the skirt.

04:48Hey,

04:49it's nice work by Peterson.

04:50He's back to his feet.

04:51I mean,

04:51it didn't look good a second ago.

04:53The way he hit the canvas.

04:55Close to being over.

04:58Boom,

04:58look at that.

04:59Love him on two.

05:00Really nice right hand.

05:07Oh,

05:07he's going to make it to the second round.

05:10I'm sure a lot of people watch it back home.

05:13I'm sure a lot of people watch it back home.

05:13I don't read if Steven Peterson were worried when that right hand connected.

05:17last few seconds looks like.

05:24Oh,

05:24big flurry at the end.

05:26I might have spoken too soon.

05:29We will see a second.

05:30He gets one back.

05:31He gets one back.

05:35See it.

05:36Fanatic's original production now available on YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts.

05:41So round number two.

05:42Key round this for Peterson.

05:44Bit of chaos in their corner,

05:45Michael.

05:46They're trying to rally their man.

05:47Didn't have the ice available.

05:49But he comes out for a big round.

05:51Yeah,

05:51I feel like the corner are expecting Petrino to get tired.

05:54He said,

05:55that's the hard round over with.

05:58Alluding to the fact that he's going to be explosive and dangerous in round one.

06:02And then fade as the fight progresses.

06:05That's a dangerous strategy.

06:07Never expect your opponent to get tired.

06:11Well,

06:11Petrino went on the record that he believes his condition.

06:13It might be the difference maker tonight.

06:15But his hands look sharp,

06:17that's for sure.

06:21Take down attempt for Petrino.

06:24Interesting strategy.

06:30A lot of energy he just wasted as well.

06:33Peterson's got the underhook.

06:35This move to heavyweight for Petrino has allowed him to focus much more on skill development.

06:50He's enjoying the process a lot more these days.

06:55He's really trying to put in an MMA performance tonight.

06:59Oh,

06:59nice knee got through.

07:01Yeah,

07:01the knee got through,

07:02but also on left hook landed for Peterson now.

07:04But Peterson,

07:07as I said earlier,

07:08in these situations,

07:10sometimes,

07:11you've got to break,

07:12throw a combination,

07:13and go again.

07:15Stop.

07:16Because the referee's going to step in.

07:20All right,

07:20I can expect that to be more of a theme now.

07:22Clearly,

07:23they've exhausted their credit up against the fence.

07:28More action needed.

07:29More action needed.

07:30That's another good reason,

07:36Michael,

07:36to echo your point,

07:37just in general,

07:38when referees are going to just start separating you.

07:41If you don't give them that,

07:42you don't just hack on someone.

07:44Yeah.

07:45Keep the fight going a bit.

07:46It does seem like Petrino is starting to fade a little bit.

07:49What about grabbing the fence now?

07:51A lovely go out to the back.

07:53And really good.

07:54Yeah,

07:55good scrambling.

07:55String of the hands.

07:56Hi, Peterson.

08:05Competitive stuff in round number two.

08:08Opposite stances.

08:11Petrino completely turning his back.

08:15Nonchalant.

08:16Peterson's going to get on him.

08:18Anytime someone does that,

08:19get right on them.

08:20That means they're tired.

08:21That means they're taking a second

08:22to disengage and recover.

08:24Don't allow them.

08:26Don't let them dictate

08:27when they are going to rest

08:29in the middle of a fight.

08:30You decide that.

08:32You decide when you allow them to breathe.

08:35Again,

08:35big motions

08:37from Petrino.

08:39If he is tired,

08:40that wasn't advisable.

08:42Right?

08:42Peterson just drags him down

08:57to the camp.

08:58He's going to try and get

08:59the hooks in.

09:01But this could backfire.

09:05Big scramble here.

09:06Yeah, Peterson just has

09:08such confidence, though,

09:09in his wrestling

09:10and scrambling ability

09:11because that was a risk.

09:13Yeah.

09:14Took a chance there.

09:16Sort of jumped

09:16on the back of the knees

09:17and he just tried

09:18to fool him into the...

09:19It didn't pay off,

09:21but it didn't backfire.

09:22Yeah.

09:22You know,

09:22he got away with it.

09:24But this is a perfect example.

09:32From this position here,

09:33you've got the rear body

09:34like...

09:34Oh, he's got that

09:34Kimura, I wonder

09:35what he was working on.

09:37Rip your arms out.

09:39Throw in a...

09:40Throw in a combination

09:40because your opponent's

09:41not even looking at you.

09:43A nice knee attempt.

09:45Oh, that big shot

09:46from Petrino.

09:47Yeah, put it together

09:48nicely there.

09:54Hey, no, God,

09:56let me show you.

09:57Yeah, yeah.

09:58Right now.

09:59Yeah, that's what.

10:00Three, my feet.

10:01One, two, three, four.

10:05Epical left,

10:06finds DeMarc.

10:13Petrino looks like

10:14he's regenerating

10:16when he steps back.

10:18An explosion of energy

10:20with technique.

10:21Well, his body language

10:22is just...

10:22that he's so calm.

10:24He doesn't necessarily...

10:26doesn't seem concerned

10:27about what Peterson

10:28brings to the table

10:30in terms of a threat.

10:32Yeah.

10:34Really nice close work

10:36from Petrino.

10:38Hurting a little bit.

10:39Lot of effort.

10:40Been put in already.

10:42Yeah, both men are tired

10:43in the corner

10:43of Steven Peterson

10:45just imploring him

10:46to dig deep,

10:47to push harder.

10:48Saying,

10:48I know you're tired,

10:50but Petrino is even more

10:51tired than you are.

10:53And it's about

10:53who can enjoy

10:54that pain

10:55when the lungs

10:56are burning

10:56and you just want to stop.

10:58It's miserable

10:58for both men.

11:00But who can dig deeper?

11:01Oh!

11:03It's an absolute thunderbolt!

11:05Wow!

11:06Petrino puts him to sleep!

11:10A slick, short little uppercut.

11:13Puts him face down

11:14on the canvas.

11:15Steven Peterson

11:16is asleep.

11:18That is a dramatic knockout.

11:24Huge celebrations

11:25here in Rio

11:27for Vito Petrino.

11:29Well, that is a way

11:38to seal the deal,

11:39ladies and gentlemen.

11:42Yeah, I mean,

11:43he put it to sleep.

11:44Let's look at that.

11:45There it is.

11:45The uppercut,

11:46left hook,

11:47short little combination.

11:49Puts Thomas Peterson

11:50to sleep.

11:51Look at that.

11:52Right on the jaw

11:52and it's this left hook here.

11:54Boom!

11:55It's done.

11:55It's over.

11:56He is 100% unconscious.

11:59Goes down face first.

12:01A highlight real finish

12:03for Vito Petrino.

12:06of the power that he has.
