Let's see whether that pays dividends! Placencia is working from a closed guard but he's struggling to control his opponent.#SUB# Placencia has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Amir should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Placencia has tightened it up now! Amir 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 2:49 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Anthony Placencia! Post fight, Anthony Placencia stared into the camera and said 'This Is It. Its Here Baby..'.
