and even when he didn’t have a great cardiovascular base for his UFC debut against ubera Tav kept getting right back up he’s a totally different Beast now than he was then Murphy in red Amir Connie is in black and we are underway Amir con always makes it a point to run out take the center of the Octagon in each of his fights sometimes starts it with a flying knee as well believe that was his debut where he comes running across and quick work presence presence this is my octagon I’m in control where we fight that’s what he tries to do but it it it doesn’t matter if immediately start to kind of give ground you got to be the guy happens you see we saw that with khabib and and and Justin gatei you know Justin gatei wants to be the guy going forward as Amir Connie gets the take down beautiful double leg there look at how he’s controlling those legs going to wrap him up here and looking for risk control Beautiful by Emy Connie the one thing that he would prefer is to have his right hand under taking an underhook I think that could save lone but by going to side control on that side it kills the underhook of Lon Murphy so Murphy opens Southpaw as soon as he goes to the Orthodox stance he gets taken down by Amir Connie about a minute into this one the reason that happens is because your split stance when you got that left leg in front and the guys in the right leg stance you want to take single leg John but soon as you split now you can drive that lead leg through the middle get to your knee and get to a double leg shot I appreciate you explaining that I didn’t even have to ask you that was more for the people I’m glad so we mentioned the schedule and lone Murphy has fought a hell of a schedule in the UFC but when you look at the big names and the rank guys Edson Barbosa Shane Bergos Amir con’s been in there with a lot Arnold Allen I tell you Lon is not aware of what’s happening right now with Amir Connie and him just changing position because now he’s in that three4 mount and he will give Lon very few opportunities to advance you know the problem with those names that we just listed though John they’re all his losses unfortunately but you learn in loss right you still learn in loss right you you look at a guy like Lon Murphy and you don’t see ET and Barbosa blasting body kicks into you are it it gives you confidence against these especially against these young guys right and this is the opportunity that’s why we’re saying that this is a good chance for him a prospect somebody who’s on the way up if he can prove listen go out there stop a guy like Lon Murphy work your way back up to those kind of opponents get that confidence back underneath of you CU right now he is in complete control here in this opening round and first time in about two years that Murphy has faced a wrestler he was sort of looking forward to see how his game had evolved in that department and he gets back to his feet here now post to this point he’s getting back to his feet but amirani is doing a really good job of keeping the pressure forward and just really kind of riding him he’s just making lone carry him in all these situations got his hands locked for Murphy he has to attack that lock as long as that guy’s hands are locked he will continue to just take you back down he’s going to try SC off and like you said at least addressing the hands now but’s got to break that lock he doesn’t break that lock will just ride him the whole time now you see him starting to drive his right elbow back inside if he can underhook that arm and look at it now the Lock’s broken now he’s got a chance but he’s got a hustle might go for a ride beautiful transition grappling by Amir KH Amir con’s got very high level submissions if lon’s not careful leave himself open for a second he’ll try to snatch up a neck this is a powerful position he’s able to slip right over in the side control just the pressure Amir con Relentless so he just drives that shoulder right in the chin of Leone Murphy if you’re flat man it ain’t going good if you’re laying flat on your back in the Octagon you have got there it is Lone gets to a hip gets to a side so he can start the process of getting back to his under 30 seconds to go in the [Music] round and Murphy gets dragged down yet again he’s going to have some adjustments to make here moving forward you know John I think he has to address the hands before anything else when he gets taken down because he will he’s got to attack those hands thumbs inside break the [Music] lock every day through the weekend including UAE Warriors AKA Eternal cage Fury FC and submission underground it’s all yours only on UFC Fight Pass so in Lon Murphy’s UFC debut against Uber to who got oh still undefeated Lon Murphy rights out air Connie hey I mean lone Murphy did not fight great in some fights before early but look at that that’s how quickly the game can change unbelievable John Murphy ain’t got time for your promo he is 110 and one and I was just going to say he had a rally for a draw the UFC deut against toab rallies tonight oh look at the timing on that knee and his Corner was saying know if he’s going to switch do it later later in the round he switches boom right into that knee he leads he knows cuz you know where i’ started he threw a few faints and maybe we can even take a look at that too I don’t know if we can look at it maybe after but he faints look he gets faint and he sees Amir Connie dips his head early and runs right into that knee well Amir con shot that double leg in the first round from halfway across the Octagon you knew it was coming again because he had so much success in the gra ladies and gentlemen the end comes of the official time 14 seconds round number two we have your winner by KO Victory Lon the miracle Murphy [Applause]
