The bell rings for round one and we are underway! Gracie misses with a takedown attempt and Gracie takes a counter punch right on the button for his troubles. Escobar throws a couple of head shots and lands with the final one - a decent hook, which struck Gracie on the side of the head. Gracie fakes high and shoots in for a takedown but Escobar avoids it really well and circles away. Gracie drives through with a really nice takedown into side control. The referee must be thinking about standing these guys back up. Gracie wants to lay and pray for a moment but Escobar keeps working. The fighters are pressed up against the cage, both looking to find a bit of space to work. Gracie throws a knee to the body but it doesn't do much damage. Escobar knows he needs to get back to his feet asap. He's simply no match for Gracie on the ground. Escobar tries to improve position but can't. Gracie is in a dominant position here, looking for a kimura. Escobar looks calm but he's in trouble here. Gracie gets his leg over his opponent's head and yanks on the arm. Escobar is tapping like a morse code operator on the titanic! SOS! SOS! Gracie lets go of the hold and Escobar can pop his arm back in it's socket.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:01 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kimura). Royce Gracie!
