Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:39 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). James Howlett!
A very excited looking James Howlett made sure he remembered to thank all the fans both in the arena and on the internet. He said all the coolest people spend all day on MMA websites, which got a big reaction.
