The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Punk keeps the fight on the outside. Hall leaves Punk with his face pressed against the mat as he sprawls beautifully, defending against a solid takedown attempt. Hall throws a jab but it's blocked by Punk. Punk fails with a rather predictable takedown attempt. A really sloppy takedown attempt there from Punk. That's three failed takedown attempts in the round for EM Punk. That's going to take a lot out of him. Punk fails with the takedown and Hall cracks him with a counter punch right on the button. Punk misses with a takedown and Hall counters with a straight right hand. We've had a slow start to the round here - hopefully the action picks up. Hall swings wildly with a right hand that was never going to find it's target. Hall is looking to clinch but Punk is avoiding it.
Hall gets caught on his heels momentarily as he allows Punk to score an easy takedown into full guard. Hall has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Punk should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Hall has tightened it up now! Punk 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 1:57 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Uryan Hall! Uryan Hall decided to thank the fans in attendance for making a great atmosphere. It seemed to go down pretty well.
