Cruz looking for an arm triangle but it's way too loose to do anything.

Cruz has hold of Whiplash's arm here. He's working for an Americana. It looks like he might have it! Whiplash tries to escape but he's just digging himself in deeper - Cruz cranks the arm and Whiplash screams in pain! The ref makes a decision and ends the fight before the tap - no complains from Whiplash, who is just happy to have his arm attached to his body.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:37 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Americana). Darian Cruz!
A very excited looking Darian Cruz made sure he remembered to thank all the fans both in the arena and on the internet. He said all the coolest people spend all day on MMA websites, which got a big reaction.
