Rai scrambles, trying to get to his feet, but Song manages to mount him!
That's one minute gone in the round. Song working for a guillotine from mount but Rai is in no mood to give up. Rai wants to improve position but instead he's given up his back. Song looking for the rear naked choke. And he's got it! Rai taps!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:46 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (RNC). Jacob Song!
