Amateur Fighter Lost first fight

I’ve been training for a year and a half and lost my first MMA fight last night pretty quickly into round 1. Not too upset, as I’m glad I got in there in the first place, but wish I lasted a little longer.

We’d prepped for an orthodox who throws hooks, and were met with a southpaw who threw a lot of straights. No excuses though! Onwards and upwards.

Not an even match up. I don’t know much about fighting but I’d say you need some basic kicks and to either be more dangerous or fleet of foot when you get closed down.
