Kyznetsov is controlling Cunningham's posture.
Cunningham trying to control the position from guard on top but Kyznetsov is wriggling around, looking for whatever he can. #SUB2#
Kyznetsov has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Cunningham should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Kyznetsov has tightened it up now! Cunningham 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 0:45 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Yuri Kyznetsov!
In defeat, Jackson Cunningham stepped up to the mic, saying 'Well, my opponent was better than me and i respect him for that.'.
