The bell rings for round one and we are underway!

Kalio drives through with a takedown into Couture's guard. Let's see what he can do from the top position.
We could do with one of the fighters taking the initiative a bit more on the ground - they're both waiting to capitalize on a mistake.
Couture wants to sweep here but Kalio controlling him for the moment.

Couture working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Kalio doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Couture is tightening it up a little... Kalio has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Kalio reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Kalio taps out! nice BJJ there by Couture!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:23 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle Choke). John Couture!
