The fight began and Trinaldo blocked a high kick. Trinaldo looked for his own high kick moments later. Laprise was able to sneak in a leg kick. “The Disciple” landed a right hand as Trinaldo charged in. “Massaranduba” dropped “The Disciple” with a left hand. Laprise stood back up and Trinaldo landed a knee to the body. Laprise then dropped down to guard. Trinaldo took control of his opponent’s back and hammered away until referee Herb Dean stopped the fight.
Final Result: Francisco Trinaldo def. Chad Laprise via TKO (punches) – Round 1, 2:43
