FightBah did not get any video but there is a play-by-play write up by MMA News Asia which help give us an idea on this exciting match up.
This is the play-by-play from MMA News Asia:
Fight 10: Lachlan “The Caledonia Kid” Hay Vs Azrin “The Kid” (Borneo Tribal Squad)
Hay comes out and straight away throws a head kick which just misses followed immediately by a solid punch which lands. Azrin replies with a hard body kick which Hay catches and he starts punching Azrin hard, Azrin is trying to defend himself but Hay’s punches are superfast. Azrin clinches hits back and they exchange knees and go to the ground, Hay tries to pull guard, he is trying to get a rubber guard in pulling his leg over high. Azrim is trying to get out of it and pushes him back into guard and Hay stands up and they are both back on their feet.
They are exchanging punches again what a great all action first minute! Azrin catches Hay with a really hard shot and Hay shoots in for a takedown, he does not want to get caught like that again, that was a great punch. Hay is in low and manages to get Azrin down but Azrin is on top and manages to sprawl, Hay is now trying to escape and he tries to take Azrins back, Azrin holds him off by grabbing a leg, they continue grappling and Azrin is still managing to stay on top. Hay still looks shaken. The crowd is going crazy loads of noise and excitment.
Azrin goes for a front choke, Hay pulls out, Hay lays a nice knee to the body and follows it up with a nice punch. Azrin replies with some punches of his own. Hay throws a succession of knees until Azrin has him pushed up against the cage. They move back to the centre, Hay lands another knee, Azrin has Hay of balance and lands a nice punch to Hays jaw.
Hay lands a nice head kick but gets countered to the jaw, he lands another head kick and in return another punch to the jaw, this is war an epic battle so far with no room to breath or relax. Azrin is hitting hard landing some uppercuts until Hay gets another take down and tries to move into side control, Azrin is using his knee well, keeping Hay from getting full side control, Hazrin has managed to get Hay into guard, he is in danger of giving up his back as he is at a strange angle, but he manages to get back into side control and almost immediately into full mount. And tries an inverted triangle, it’s not a good position so he moves to a north south position and again into mount and he starts to land some hard ground and pound. Azrin escapes out the back door but he took some bad shots while down.
Both fighters are standing again and Hay starts to really let loose on Azrin with devastatingly powerful uppercuts and right hands and Azrin is wobbling and more punches and Hay goes for a knee and as Azrin falls Hay lands on top but Azrin is out. A great fight and sure to be hard to beat as the fight of the night.
Hay wins in 2 minutes 53 seconds of Round 1
We would like to give Azrin Kadri a shout out for stepping in to the cage & putting on a great performance. While he did not win in his debut but we believe he will continue to train hard for more MMA fights to come! Respect also to his opponent! Both fighters put on a good fight that became "Fight of the Night"!
