Bawls has the hooks in and he's looking for a rear naked choke here. Malone is defending well but eventually Bawls manages to get an arm under the chin and he's locked on the RNC! Malone has no choice but to tap now! He does! This one is all over!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:44 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (RNC). Auld Bawls!
A relieved looking Auld Bawls thanked the fans for their support and gave the usual line about them being amazing. They seemed to believe that he actually meant it.
