Andre Fili vs. Jeremy Larsen

Round 1
Jacob Montalvo is the referee for this catchweight bout. Fili slips on an early high kick and is countered by a straight right. Larsen begins circling the outside, comes in to strike and gets clipped by a crisp right hand, then another. A single-leg attempt from Larsen is stuffed, so he comes back to clinch on the fence. Fili makes him pay with a big knee up the middle, and Larsen goes to the ground. Fili keeps the punches coming, then more knees once Larsen gets back to his feet. Larsen is sporting a bloody cut near his left eye, but he manages to grab hold of Fili and change levels for a double-leg to slow the assault. Fili breaks away, and now ref Montalvo wants the doctor to take a look at Larsen’s cut. Larsen is cleared to continue; when they resume, Fili continues to stick punches in Larsen’s face before a brief clinch. Larsen catches Fili leg-kicking with another right-handed counter, and Fili falls to the ground this time. Larsen comes down to Fili’s guard, so Fili attacks with an omoplata and sweeps his way back to his feet. Fili finishes the round with a few more punches to Larsen’s bloodied face.
