The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Excellent takedown into side control there by Nielsen. Schneider is looking to get back to his feet here but Nielsen is keeping cool and he's managed to take Schneider's back. The fighters are pressed up against the cage, both looking to find a bit of space to work. Nielsen looking to break Schneider's wrist control so he can sink in the choke. Schneider remaining controlled and patient though - he really has to keep calm otherwise Nielsen will wrap this one up with the rear naked choke! Nielsen trying to control momentarily.
Nielsen lands a punch that was close to the back of the head but the ref thinks it's OK. Nielsen has the hooks sunk in and you can see the will to fight slowly draining out of Schneider's body.
Fantastic stuff here - a very entertaining period of action, which has drawn cheers from the crowd. Nielsen has the superior BJJ but he's also working some ground strikes into his gameplan. Nielsen softening up his opponent with strikes here.
Nielsen has the rear naked choke here! This is very bad for Schneider! Can he survive? No! He's out! Nielsen gets to his feet and celebrates with his cornermen. He looks absolutely delighted. In the post fight interviews he takes time to thank his parents and everyone who has believed in him from the start. How sweet.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:55 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (RNC). Finley Nielsen!
