The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Kim tries to shoot in for a takedown. He's got hold of a leg but Baddey swivels and escapes. Baddey is looking to slow Kim down with leg kicks. Excellent takedown into side control there by Kim. Kim is trying to land an Americana. He has the arm isolated but Baddey is keeping cool and he's avoided the danger for now. Kim wants to work for a kimura but he's foiled early by Baddey, who protects the arm well. Kim thinks about going for a far side armbar but bails out and retains the dominant position instead. Baddey knows he needs to get back to his feet asap. He's simply no match for Kim on the ground. The fans in attendance giving it up for the two fighters, who have really let it all hang out in the last minute or so! Kim is looking for a kimura. He might have it! No, Baddey has escaped the position, nice work there. Kim tries for a kimura. Not really close to a finish though. Baddey really does look like a pencil wearing a pair of gloves. Let's hope he has a gameplan to suit that ridiculous body shape.
That's one minute gone in the round. Kim tries for an arm triangle. That looks pretty tight to me. Is this one over!?! Possibly, maybe, no Kim has let go of the choke. Obviously it wasn't as tight as we thought! Kim is in a dominant position here, looking for a kimura. Baddey looks calm but he's in trouble here. Kim gets his leg over his opponent's head and yanks on the arm. Baddey is tapping like a morse code operator on the titanic! SOS! SOS! Kim lets go of the hold and Baddey can pop his arm back in it's socket.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:44 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kimura). Jesse Kim!
