After this bout we will have NZ's Dylan Andrews against Clint Hester, which promises to be a decent scrap. Kedzie and Correia coming back out for round 2 now
Kedzie getting more of the support here with everyone calling her Julie, presumably they're all on my first name basis. That just leads me to think of the Ali G movie and his term of "Me Julie" for his GF
A lot of work up against the cage from both fighters, not a lot of pace to this round
Correia the more active of the pair and is probably edging the cards here
After two rounds I see Correia ahead, third and final to come shortly and Kedzie will need something special to swing it here... Crowd coming in and out of this one
Correia on top here, crazy thing about being here is despite there being 12,000 people in the crowd, they're rather quiet during the fights and you can hear a lot of heckling word for word
It's fair to say some of this crowd started on the beers pretty early today
final minute coming up of the third and final round here between Correia and Kedzie. Correia ahead on my card, Kedzie needs to rally
This one's done now. Going to the judges....
Security blokes here at the BEC are massive. Stark contrast to the 52kg girls they have at Westpac Stadium. I'm yet to see any of them make a tackle on a streaker...
Decision win to Bethe Correia. Split decision though. Right, time for Andrews....
Correia has a cornerman who is about the size of Andre the Giant
Big cheer from the crowd as they put the promo vid up for Hester and Andrews. Both are decent boxers, should be a nice stand-up fight...
Hester bouncing out to the ring here....
Entry songs have been poor tonight, Hester's not too bad here by comparison
I like Andrews here in this fight. The guy is uber-tough...
Dylan Andrews coming out to Six60's "Don't forget your roots".....
Andrews v Hester. Here we gooooooooooooo
Hester getting booed. Crowd going NUTS for Andrews....
Andrews jacking up the crowd...
These guys are good mates too, should be interesting
Andrews take him down, crowd roar..
Both struggling on the ground, it's not where either guy would prefer to be
Interesting it hit the deck so early, but that's the vagaries of fighting...
Ref may need to stand them up soon, neither are getting much traction here. Neither are flash wrestlers or ground exponents,,
Andrews getting the better of him but Hester reverses as such, both guys jostling here
Fight is up... crowd roar
