The bell rings for round one and we are underway!

Kargins drives through with a takedown into Yoshioka's guard. Let's see what he can do from the top position.
Yoshioka controls Kargins momentarily but Kargins frees himself.
Kargins really doesn't want to stay on the ground with Yoshioka. If he can't get it back to his feet, it's only a matter of time before he'll be tapping out.

Yoshioka is looking to cinch up a triangle. Kargins throws the leg off to one side though and gets in tight to Yoshioka's body to avoid the submission. Yoshioka has instead reached around Kargins's neck and now has a guillotine! Oh, this is biiiig trouble! Yoshioka arches his back and squeezes and forces the tap from his hapless opponent.
