The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Maanpohja tries for a takedown but Alfredsson circles away easily and Alfredsson counters with a quick right hand to the jaw. Maanpohja on the wrong end of an overhand right that came out of nowhere. Maanpohja misses with a takedown and Alfredsson counters with a stiff right hand.

Maanpohja takes a shot right to the liver - Bas would have been proud of that punch. Maanpohja fails with the takedown and Alfredsson counters with an outside leg kick.
That's three failed takedown attempts in the round for Johannes Maanpohja. That's going to take a lot out of him. Alfredsson with a nice cross. Maanpohja feints and as Alfredsson raises his hands in defense, Maanpohja changes levels and drives through with a takedown into guard. The fans in attendance giving it up for the two fighters, who have really let it all hang out in the last minute or so! The referee must be thinking about standing these guys back up. Maanpohja postures up to throw the ground and pound strikes but they don't connect. Alfredsson has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Maanpohja should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Alfredsson has tightened it up now! Maanpohja should have reacted faster there - he's in big trouble and yes, he's tapped out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:58 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Daniel Alfredsson! A less than humble Daniel Alfredsson misjudged his post fight interview somewhat and came across a little too arrogant whilst trying to hype up his own abilities.
