Taking on the recent tough runner up khil rree Jr rre is in blue Pedro is in Black that that Pedro wanted on this fight card so badly Dan accepted this fight without even knowing who the opponent was going to be just wanted in this o gone and

Wanted the chance to Showcase his skills I I love the comment about the fact that he would have he would have cut his leg off to fight jaare in this Main Event you know it really shows how determined he is to be here and only four fights into his professional career you would

Think he’s possibly a little green for the UFC but all week he’s looked comfortable he’s looked confident like he belongs here like he’s known all along that the UFC was his Destiny now he has to make that a reality by getting the win over a very tough Round Tree

Junior oh oh powerful left hand big take down for Tyson Pedro good recover from that knock [Applause] down Pedro would appear to have the ground advantage in this fight able to mount Round Tree Jr briefly after the big knockdown from khil what a huge confidence booster from

Rry bring your right leg inside bring your right leg inside good work here from Pedro trying to strip the base away of Khal rry J You’ll see him try and remove that knee base that he’s got these guys had a pretty good back and forth backstage after the weigh in

Pedro asking Round Tree junr if he wanted to chase that fight of the night bonus so far major action here after the early knockdown for rre junr see some blood around that nose of Pedro stay defensive here I want hands working step out now switch your hips now Swit your H

And Pedro seems to have recovered well from that straight left knockdown this is a good opportunity for him to clear the cobwebs and fresher KH rry up against the fence possibly wear him out a little there’s no doubt that he watched that Ultimate Fighter finale and saw rry struggle and be smothered by

His opponent Andrew Sanchez did a good job of just taking the fight away from him that was a nice inside re there from Tyson Pedro Pedro’s longest Pro fight coming in 3 minutes and 5 Seconds so getting close to this now being the longest fight of his pro career you may

Recognize him cornered James tahun a couple times in the UFC his father own King of the cage here in Australia so spent a lot of time watching highle athletes compete figures to help who have helped him get ready for his UFC debut tonight Brea PR keep the Press he did say that

He I mean really he started martial arts at three or four years old starting to work stances and Strikes and stretching with his father and then progressed on to Brazilian jiu-jitsu and then boxing so it’s you know he’s really built a mixed martial arts skill set over the

Years and obviously he’s been steered by people around him that have really wanted to see him succeed from a very early age and it’s obviously paid off a beautiful M position here now for Tyson Pedro this is bad news for round let’s listen into that blue corner of Tyson Pedro It’s Going Under

Round tree trying to turn with the choke here Dan yeah he’s doing a good job of Defending but he’s not out trouble oh now he’s flattened out that’s a terrible position oh attack wow tyon Pedro lighting him up here in Melbourne what a UFC debut he got starched early immediately got the taked

Down he submits khil round J tonight well John the hype is real welcome to the UFC Tyson Pedro very very impressive a lot of people suggested this guy must be good if he’s getting this KN at Just 4 and0 make it 5 and0 for Tyson Pedro you know he did a great

Job of fighting through adversity he got cracked really hard with a straight left but look at this work immediately takes the back and rantry was doing a good job of Defending but made the mistake of bridging over and allowing Tyson Pedro to get two hooks in flattens him out and

Then there was no defense that rear naked choke nothing left to do but tap a great first round victory for Tyson Pedro ladies and gentlemen referee Herb Dean has called a stop to this contest at 4 minutes 7 Seconds of the very first round declaring the winner by submission

Due to a rear neaked choke Tyson [Applause] Pedro
