It looks like Vinny Dias has been cut. Rogers manages to get an easy takedown there - catching Dias on his heels. He'll look to pass Dias's guard now, I'm sure. Dias is trying to keep Rogers in close.
Rogers wants to get up but he can't break Dias's closed guard. He needs to be careful trying to break the legs open, as he's open to submissions here. Rogers looks more muscular than last time we saw him. He must have been on the weights. We've had a slow start to the round here - hopefully the action picks up. Dias definitely looks more muscular than last time we saw him fight. The fighters are pressed up against the cage, both looking to find a bit of space to work.
That's one minute gone in the round. Dias working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Rogers doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Dias is tightening it up a little... Rogers has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Rogers reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Rogers taps out! Nice BJJ there by Dias!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:25 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle Choke). Vinny Dias! Vinny Dias retains his welterweight title!
