The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Xhaka closes this distance looking for a takedown but Boyko circles away. Xhaka fails with the takedown and Boyko counters with a takedown into side control. Xhaka regains half guard there - taking advantage of Boyko's attempt to lay and pray for a moment. Boyko throwing shots but Xhaka is blocking nicely. Xhaka slips a foot under and gets full guard. Nice work. Boyko has to be careful here, sitting in the guard of a superior BJJ player. Boyko is trying to tuck his arms in to keep them safe but Xhaka has managed to isolate one of them and has got a loose triangle. Boyko is looking to defend but Xhaka has done well to lock his legs together - this could be big trouble for Boyko! Xhaka pulls down on the head and a little smile comes across his face - he knows he's got it. Yep, Boyko taps out and this one is all over!
