CES MMA 36 results: Nate Andrews improves to 9-1 with third-round submission of Luis Muro

BAD MMA News — Sat, 11 Jun 2016 04:15:16 +0000

Takedowns were the deciding factor in tonight’s CES MMA 36 main event between Nate Andrews and Luis Muro, which aired on AXS TV at Twin River Casino in Lincoln, RI. The final takedown of the fight went to Andrews (9-1) in the third round. He managed to use that advantage to take Muro’s (4-2) back and secure the victory in the lightweight bout by rear-naked choke at the 1:59 mark of Round 3. Andrews almost ended the fight abruptly in the first round when he landed in mount off an early scramble. He synched in a guillotine choke, which may or may not have caused a tap from his opponent, but ultimately was unable to get the finish and the action spilt over into a second frame. Opening-round success from his opponent didn’t deter Muro’s confidence in the grappling department.

Mouth guard, hand wraps, cup (if you’re male), gloves, shin guards, head guard, shorts, and coffee. All are essential if you’re going to try and hold down a full-time job, and, at the same time, compete as a professional mixed martial artist. At least that’s how Lewis Corapi sees it. He has nine professional fights on his resume, and he’s employed full-time as a senior client reporting analyst for Putnam Investments in Boston. Corapi (7-2 MMA), who faces Julian Lane, (yes, the Julian Lane who screamed the infamous “Let me bang, bro!” line during “The Ultimate Fighter 16”) in a lightweight contest on Friday’s CES MMA 36 card, grabs his first jolt of caffeine at 5 a.m
