Paniikki shoots in for a takedown and gets it. Let's see what he's got on the mat.
Paniikki thinks about going for a leg but decides against it, in order to maintain the position.
Knorr looking to try and escape his hips here, looking for a submission. It looks like he's going for a triangle but Paniikki is defending well. Knorr quickly switches to an armbar and extends the arm! Paniikki has no choice but to tap, to a very quick submission! Wow, that was lightning fast! Knorr celebrates on the cage, with the crowd.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:42 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Matheus Knorr!
Matheus Knorr really struggled to get his t-shirt on before his hand was raised. Making sure that RAGS of a RONIN logo gets some air time is pretty tricky when you're all sweaty.
