The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Pappalardo drops Midget with a nice combination! Pappalardo dives into Midget's guard, looking to finish!
We could do with one of the fighters taking the initiative a bit more on the ground - they're both waiting to capitalize on a mistake. Pappalardo tries to free his leg and advance position but Midget is retaining full guard. Midget is working actively off his back, looking to secure an arm or perhaps work for a triangle. 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! Midget is working actively from the bottom, looking for submissions. He's escaped his hips to the side and he's going for an armbar! Pappalardo has his hands clasped together but Midget extends and breaks Pappalardo's desperate grasp, forcing a tap out due to armbar! Nice BJJ displayed there by Midget.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:25 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Justin Midget!
