Carwin really trying hard to get back to half guard here.
That's four minutes gone in the round.
Obworth postures up and cracks his opponent a couple of times before moving back into close ground control. Carwin looks a forlorn figure.
Obworth postures up and throws a massive shot that knocks Carwin out cold! Two more strikes to his unconscious opponent for good luck and this one is all over! Obworth goes absolutely crazy with his corner! Wow, you can see how much that win means to him!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:45 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Strikes). Jacob Obworth!
Jacob Obworth gave a mention to Australian Xtreme - All 159 Video Proof. in his post fight interview. That will please them (and hopefully generate some sales).
