We've had a slow start to the round here - hopefully the action picks up.#SUB2#
Das Couves looking for submissions from the bottom here. Moving his hips around, possibly looking for an armbar.
Diaz not doing a lot at the moment. He'll have to show some more aggression or the fight will get stood up.
Diaz makes a bit of distance and scores with some ground and pound, still in guard.#T1#
Das Couves tries to land a sweep but no joy.
Diaz has decided he wants to stand but the closed guard of Das Couves is proving hard to escape from. #SUB2#
Das Couves working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Diaz doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Das Couves is tightening it up a little... Diaz has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Diaz reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Diaz taps out! Nice BJJ there by Das Couves!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:35 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle Choke). Manel Das Couves!
