Liveblog: ROC 25 Part 4

Kevin Horowitz of Rhino Fight Team and Anthony Abatelli of Team Serra/Longo are up. Round 1 plays out as a pretty decent donnybrook, with Abatelli gaining the upper hand with top position, Horowitz countering with a heelhook attempt, and the two trading punches, takedowns and ground and pound efforts. The seesaw continues its merry ride in Round 2, but Horowitz edges ahead with more offense when he's on top and on the bottom. Unfortunately, the Team Serra/Longo fighter's gas tank is on "E", and in the final round Horowitz pounds on him and threatens with two rear naked chokes, and when time runs out is in the mount raining down punches. There's no question Horowitz deserves the unanimous decision he's awarded. Mitch Whitesel of Wreck Room Athletics enters the cage to face Ricardo Almeida-trained Andrew Riddles. *Insert joke about solving riddles here.* Round 1 begins and they immediately hug against the cage, whispering sweet nothings into each others ears and talking about Paris. "Yes, my dear friend, we will always have Paris..." This goes on for the entire round, with referee Keith Peterson reluctant to break them apart for fear of a Title VII discrimination lawsuit. Round 2 is more of the same, but Riddles takes the lead with some ground and pound. Riddles' efforts to batter Whitesel are even more successful in the final round, and when time expires he takes the unanimous decision.
