The bell rings for round one and we are underway!
Rix fails miserably with a takedown attempt.
Por muang ubon looks exhausted already! Oh dear, he should have come in in better shape than this!

Rix feints and then dives in with a takedown. That was a long way out but the feint bought him enough time to close the distance and complete the takedown. Now we'll play guard for a bit and see who can get the better of that position.

Rix is trying to work a guillotine from the top, or something like that? Don't know how he thinks he's going to get a finish from there.

Rix drops back for a leg here. A bit of a high risk move... He's looking for a kneebar by the looks of things. Now both of them are looking for submissions. Rix seems to have locked his on tight now - Por muang ubon screams in pain and taps out furiously! It certainly was a high risk move but it's paid off for Rix, as he picks up the win!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:33 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kneebar). Max Rix!
