Gracie prevents Horvat from getting back to his feet.

Gracie is holding a leg here, probably looking for an ankle lock - he drops back and goes for it! Horvat is in trouble! Is it all over??? No! Horvat has escaped and now he's on top!

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

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:36 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle Choke). Zeus Gracie!
