Asais gets taken down but at least he's managed to land in guard.
Ramic connects with a couple of short punches.#SUB2#
Asais working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Ramic doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Ramic manages to throw the legs off his shoulder and he's back into guard - no problem.
Asais lands a beautiful sweep and he's now moved into his opponent's guard.#REVB##T4##SUB#
Ramic has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Asais should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Ramic has tightened it up now! Asais 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 4:26 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Tarik Ramic!
