The bell rings for round one and we are underway! James gets his head snapped back by a nice shot there. Cierpka shoots in and gets a takedown into James's guard. Cierpka controlling from the guard. I say controlling but really, he's stalling. Cierpka has been taking part in the yoga sessions down at MB Gym. Presumably he's going to look for a slick submission... Or maybe he's looking to avoid one. Cierpka with a couple of shots to the head there. Not particularly brutal. The ref warns both fighters not to hold the cage as they work up against the meshing. Cierpka is taking a break and basically stalling. The referee will not allow him to do that for long. We've had a slow start to the round here - hopefully the action picks up. James trying to control the position.
Cierpka working from the guard for now, landing some ground and pound. Cierpka drops back for a leg! It's a sloppy attempt though and Cierpka jumps back into guard quickly, to retain the dominant position. James can't do much from the bottom at the moment, as Cierpka controls the pace.
That's one minute gone in the round. Let's hope that Cierpka has the urge to step up the pace any second now because for the last 15 or 20 seconds he's just been holding on tight. Cierpka works a leg free and moves into half guard. Cierpka has hold of the far side arm. He's working for the Kimura, can James defend it? Cierpka steps over the head and cranks it - James is tapping out! That was textbook stuff right there - nice submission victory for Cierpka!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:19 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kimura). Krystian Cierpka! Krystian Cierpka decided to thank the fans in attendance for making a great atmosphere. It seemed to go down pretty well.
