The bell rings for round one and we are underway!
Tellervo looks to land a combination. Suarus sees it coming but can only parry a couple of the shots.
Tellervo closes the distance and gets a double leg, slamming Suarus to the mat! Suarus manages to get full guard.
Suarus is working an open guard here, looking to improve his position. No doubt that will leave him open to counters but at least he's being more offensive.
Suarus is working actively off his back, looking to secure an arm or perhaps work for a triangle.
Tellervo is looking to stand up but Suarus won't let him.
Tellervo is sitting in close to Suarus's body. Suarus has gone for a guillotine from the bottom. Oh damn, that looks pretty tight! Tellervo is panicking - it looks like this one could be all over! Yes, Tellervo is tapping! That was a very nice submission by Suarus.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:03 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Guillotine). Cocka Suarus!
