Round one of this UFC Atlanta light heavyweight matchup begins and Rodolfo Bellato comes forward and is on quickly on the offensive. He lands a 1-2 and then a pair of low kicks. A big right over the top connects. Paul Craig answers with a spinning back kick to the body. The fighters trade low kicks. Craig shoots for a takedown but it is not there. Bellato with a 1-2. Another takedown attempt from ‘Bearjew’ fails to come to fruition. He does land a nice kick to the body right after. Another spinning back kick from the Scotsman lands. He drives Bellato back into the cage. He lands a trip takedown but Rodolfo is able to scramble right back to his feet. The Brazilian tries a takedown of his own now and he gets it! He’s working from half guard with 20 seconds remaining in the round. He stands up and lands a pair of kicks. He looks to come back into guard and Paul Craig hits him with an upkick and he is out cold. Wow! Not sure if that was legal or not. But this fight is likely over. The referee is checking the replay to see if that was a legal strike.
