The bell rings for round one and we are underway!

Bash drives through with a takedown into guard.

Alieva is actively looking for submissions from his back. He's worked himself a little space on the bottom and seems to be going for a triangle. No, he's switched into an armbar! That was slick! Bash rolls with it to try and escape but Alieva cranks on the arm and Bash is forced to tap out! This one is aaaaaaaaall over!
