00:15A massive crowd ovation.

00:17The champion, Roberto Satoshi Sousa.

00:21Grappler vs Striker.

00:24Satoshi's exquisite sub game against Gustavo's violent brand of striking.

00:303 by 5 for the lightweight championship.

00:34Damian Brown with you.

00:36Gustavo the underdog at plus 175.

00:40Satoshi Sousa the favorite with the bookmakers at minus 250.

00:46Brown kick.

00:47Oh! Smack bang! He dropped him early!

00:49It's over! It's over!

00:51It is over!

00:53Can you believe it?

00:56Can you believe it?

00:58Can you bloody believe it?

01:01I think it's 21 seconds.

01:04That's crazy.

01:06That's incredible.

01:07I didn't see that coming.

01:09I mean we knew he had power.

01:11He's got 5 knockouts on his record.

01:13But I never seen that coming that early.

01:16But that's when it happens.

01:17Early in the fight the guys aren't warmed up.

01:19The blood's not flowing.

01:21He put that right hand on Gustavo.

01:23Wobbled him into the ropes.

01:25But he wasted no time getting it done.

01:27When you've got the grappling he's got

01:29you can be fearless in your approach to the striking.

01:32Tonight I think you might be right

01:34on the clock to put like 21 seconds

01:36into round number one

01:38of the main event.

01:4035 years old Roberto Sousa defends

01:43his lightweight title.

01:46Insane.

01:49Absolutely insane.

01:55Gustavo can't believe it.

02:00He does not know what hit him.

02:02We'll see it in a moment's time on the replay.

02:06We believe it was 21 seconds.

02:16We said it from the start.

02:18Murderous roll.

02:20Here tonight at Rising 48.

02:26Sakakibara-san

02:28places the belt again

02:30around the waist of Roberto

02:32Satoshi Sousa.

02:37Who can possibly take it from him?

02:41I don't think that Gustavo

02:43even had a chance to get anything off Damien.

02:45No, nothing really.

02:47He threw a feint, got counted.

02:49And that was about all she wrote.

02:51The black belt gets wrapped

02:53back around the waist of Roberto Sousa

02:55who every time walks out

02:57with his heritage

02:59and his heart on the line.

03:01Walks out with his belt, his gene.

03:05Representing Brazil and Japan.

03:07And tonight he gets it done.

03:09I don't know if Gustavo

03:11I'm sure for the next half an hour

03:13or an hour, unfortunately, he's going to be asking

03:15what happened to his corners.

03:17When you get knocked out like that

03:19especially when you get dropped multiple times

03:21you tend to not know what actually happened.

03:23And that's part of the game

03:25that we play.

03:27He'll be super disappointed. That's a long camp

03:29to put in for a title fight

03:31that you worked so hard for

03:33to be over in 21 seconds.

03:35Here we see on the replay

03:37he just throws a feint, steps to the side,

03:39caught in a kick,

03:41left himself open and that was the right hand.

03:45And then the follow up.

03:49Look, I think Derek Miner, sorry,

03:51Brian Miner, he stopped that fight

03:53pretty quickly. I mean, I know that was a drop

03:55and then he followed up

03:57and dropped him again, but straight away

03:59goes for the up kicks. Look, I'm not sure

04:01maybe he could have let it go, but

04:03he was definitely dropped twice

04:05when he was out. In a title fight

04:07we like to say sometimes the stakes are a little

04:09higher, maybe we can take a bit more

04:11risk, but at the end of the day it's the

04:13health and safety of the fighter and he got dropped

04:15twice bad.

04:19Beautiful finish by Roberto Souza

04:21putting everyone

04:23on notice with that kind of power in the hands.

04:25That short

04:27right hand that

04:29dropped Gustavo for the first time.
