Aho is looking for a kimura here.
We've had a slow start to the round here - hopefully the action picks up.#SUB2#
Aho is trying for a guillotine from the top but the pressure isn't in the right place so Diesel is just riding it out for now. Aho eventually gives up the hold. #SUB2#
Aho seems to be looking for submissions.
#T1##SUB2#
Aho has hold of the far side arm. He's working for the Kimura, can Diesel defend it? Aho steps over the head and cranks it - Diesel is tapping out! That was textbook stuff right there - nice submission victory for Aho!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:27 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kimura). Niklas Aho! |
