The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Roman defends well against a solid takedown attempt from Van Deinsen. Van Deinsen shoots for a takedown but Roman saw that one coming a mile off and avoided it easily. Roman shoots in with a lovely double leg takedown. Van Deinsen manages to land in full guard to minimise the damage. Roman not doing a lot at the moment. He'll have to show some more aggression or the fight will get stood up. Roman is looking to pass into half guard but Van Deinsen pushes him away with his feet and jumps on top - now Van Deinsen is in guard. The fighters are tangled up in the ropes here. We might need a restart if the fighters can't break free themselves. Van Deinsen drops back, looking for a kneebar! Roman looks panicked! The fighters roll across the mat, one looking to finish, one looking to escape. Roman looks to have wriggled free... Yes, he's got his leg free and he's dived into side control! Good work there from Roman! Van Deinsen is looking to regain half guard here but Roman keeps moving and retains side control. Roman wants to lay and pray for a moment but Van Deinsen keeps working.
That's one minute gone in the round. Roman is working for what looks like an arm triangle here. Van Deinsen is trying to escape and Roman transitions quickly into an armbar! He's slapped it on tight and Van Deinsen is forced to tap! Nice work there by Roman! Very nice indeed!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:31 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Greco Roman! Greco Roman decided to go for the less than humble approach in his post fight interview, telling everyone how he is going to conquer the world. The crowd seemed to like it when really that sort of approach could have gone either way.
