Tamasako looking for a kimura but he'll have to free his other leg if he wants to finish that. Perhaps he's just using it as a distraction technique.

Fernandes has hold of a guillotine but he's not going to be able to crank on it really with only half guard, so it's no trouble for Tamasako. Oh but Fernandes has got full guard now! Oh boy! This one could be over very soon! Tamasako goes limp - he's gone! Fernandes jumps up and celebrates with the crowd - fantastic submission finish!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:04 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Guillotine). Andre Fernandes!
