The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Menezes looking for a takedown here - he's got it. The fighters are pressed up against the cage, both looking to find a bit of space to work. Menezes advances to half guard. Menezes throwing shots but they're hitting the canvas more than the man. Menezes is just sitting in half guard, waiting for something to happen. Menezes has the superior BJJ but he's also working some ground strikes into his gameplan. Valenzuela is trying to control Menezes's posture. Menezes takes advantage of the lull and advances to side control. He also appears to have an arm triangle here! Uh oh, big trouble for Valenzuela! Menezes is rotating here... this could be the end... Valenzuela is out! Menezes has ended this one emphatically! Great submission!
