Zachrich enters the cage first in a red TAPOUT cap. We hear his voice as he enters,

“I’m Going to impose my will”

Cramer enters in a UFC black hoody,

“I’m here to win the whole tournament”

Round 1

Steve Mazzagatti gets the refereeing duties for this one.

Both fighters are stand-up brawlers, so most of the round takes place with them on their feet.

Zachrich is the more aggressive fighter in the beginning, landing strong right hands and an effective Muay Thai clinch. Zachrich scores the first takedown a little over a minute into the fight.

The fight quickly returns to standing, and Zachrich inflicts some damage with his knees in his Muay Thai clinch. Cramer is a little unsure of what he wants to do and spends a lot of time letting Zachrich control the fight.

Not until Zachrich throws Cramer down again, does Cramer seem to awaken. After the throw down, Cramer scrambles to his feet and the fighters clinch. This time though Cramer gets the better of the exchanges. He utilizes some a strong dirty boxing game to continually throw short right and left hands, that land right on the button.

For a good minute Cramer rocks Zachrich with his dirty boxing. Clearly losing steam, Zachrich takes Cramer down with a trip with about a minute to go in the round.

Cramer looks uncomfortable on the ground, and Zachrich takes his back. He tries to sink in a rear naked choke and almost succeeds. Cramer resists and survives until the bell.

**Close round, but because Zachrich controlled the beginning and end of the round he wins it barely.

Round 2

Both coaches tell the tired fighters, it’s all about composure now.

Cramer comes out and immediately takes a gassed looking Zachrich down. He mounts him in top position and begins to drive heavy forearms and short punches into Zachrich’s face. Zachrich is hurt and gives up his back to avoid the forearms and punches.

Cramer rides Zachrich’s back and throws more punches. He turns Zachrich and throws whatever he has left at him. Zachrich succumbs to the ground and pound. Mazzagatti steps in.

***Cramer wins by TKO in round 2

POST FIGHT

Rampage is ecstatic. He starts breaking down the win for the camera in his best gibberish. At the end of his celebratory review he finally says something understandable,

“Best fight I’ve seen in a long time”.

Cramer is happy, the whole Rampage team is. When Cramer lets out a big sigh, it signifies the end of a long losing streak. Zachrich, shows great class in giving Cramer his props,
