Joaquin working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Karelin doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Joaquin is tightening it up a little... Karelin has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Karelin reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Karelin taps out! Nice BJJ there by Joaquin!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:55 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle Choke). Rory Joaquin!
