Round 1: Yves Lavigne is the referee for this middleweight finals. Gordon takes center right off, and along cage unloads a right hand that grazes. Lima fires back, and he eats on in the exchange. They circle to other side, and now Gordon is bum-rushing Lima, pounding away! Big punches! Lima in big trouble Truck unloads! It’s over. Lavigne steps in and calls him off. Couple of near back of the head shots in there. Very close to the naked eye. But Gordon is the new TUF winner.
