and Leyton counters with a nice double leg into guard. Verdi is looking to stand back up... there's a bit of a scramble and Leyton dives into side control.
Leyton is maintaining the dominant position - no doubt Verdi will start to get frustrated soon if he's not already.
Leyton looking for an arm triangle but it's way too loose to do anything. Verdi gives up the full mount - oops, sloppy defensive grappling there! Verdi is in a horrible position here. Leyton smacks him with another shot as he tries to escape the position.
Leyton lands a big shot there that rocks Verdi but he's holding on and managing to survive for now.

Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:33 of round 1, we have a winner by way of KO (Strikes). Timo Leyton! A very excited looking Timo Leyton rambled incoherently for about 5 minutes post fight about how awesome he is. It was kinda funny for a while but then everyone got annoyed.
