Origins 7 took place this past weekend in Perth, Australia. The main event featured Yodsanklai Fairtex vs. Marco Tentori.
Tentori came out aggressive in the bout, throwing strikes in volume. Yodsanklai didn't seem affected by the volume of strikes that were thrown his way as he calmly held the center of the ring and stalked Tentori. Yodsanklai started to pick up his output in the second round and both fighters were showing a diverse arsenal as they mixed in their kicks, punches, knees and elbows together.
The third round is when Yodsanklai really began to take control despite Tentori throwing more volume. Yodsanklai defended well from most of Tentori's strikes, and when he did connect they didn't seem to affect Yodanklai. In the fourth round a well placed elbow opened up a cut over Tentori's right eye, after Yodsanklai noticed this he targeted the eye a bit more.
Tentori was still game in the final round until with less than a minute to go an elbow from Yodsanklai hurt Tentori, as he tried to back away Yodsanklai followed with a knee and Tentori dropped to his knees and received an 8-count from the referee. Tentori was able to make it to the end of the fight in a valiant effort, but the judges awarded Yodsanklai a unanimous decision. With the win Yodsanklai has now won 20 consecutive fights, and has not lost since November of 2011.
