It was worse than you think it was...
LHW | David Heath vs. Renato Sobral
Round 1
"Babalu" with a quick takedown and lands a couple of punches in Heath's guard. Heath with a loose guard, and he eats three elbows from Sobral. After a scramble, Heath reverses and is on top of Sobral. Heath slips out of a submission attempt and can't tee off yet from inside Sobral's guard ... pace slows a bit as Sobral keeps Heath tight to his chest ... completely horizontal round, with a slight edge to "Babalu."
Sobral, 10-9 on our card.
Round 2
Sobral opens with another takedown and begins to blast Heath with shot after shot while on top. Heath is cut badly on the forehead ... blood pores all over his face and the mat. As Heath tries to raise up to his feet, Sobral latches on to his neck and rolls into an anaconda choke that prompts the tap from Heath. Controversy ensues afterward, as Sobral held on to the choke for at least two counts after referee Steve Mazzagatti called a halt to the action. Heath's corner has words with Sobral, who makes no apologies. Sobral tosses his hat to the crowd. It gets tossed back!
Sobral wins by submission (anaconda choke), 3:30 of round 2
