In tonight’s featured heavyweight bout Walt Harris steps in on short notice against Fabricio Werdum… Really short notice, like 3-hours.
In the opening round, the two felt eachother out. Werdum threw a high-kick, shot for a single leg, took Harris down, mounted him and transitioned to an armbar and finished the fight.
It was just that simple.
Result: Fabricio Werdum def. Walt Harris via submission (Armbar – Round 1 1:05)
