Kraven showing good wrestling skills to control the position.
Murakami wants to stand but Kraven is controlling the position. #SUB#
Kraven postures up as if he's going to throw some strikes but drops back for an ankle! Murakami is in big trouble! He looks ready to tap! But no, he's escaped and dives on top of Kraven, into his guard. #REVB##T2#
My god... these two guys really need to pick up the pace or everyone will leave to go get a beer.#SUB#
Kraven looking for a triangle here. Murakami is fighting it but it looks tight! Kraven pulls the arm across and this one won't last much longer! Nope, Murakami is tapping out - this one is all over!

Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:22 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle Choke). Wiz Kraven!
Wiz Kraven seemed lost for words in his post fight interview but he remembered to thank his fans and directed everyone to his website.
