The bell rings for round one and we are underway!
Smith closes the distance and clinches up, looking for a takedown. He shifts his weight and gets a nice trip into half guard.
Kazuraba is trying to escape back to his feet but Smith uses the scramble to pass into side control.
The fighters are trapped in the ropes so we're going to have a reposition here. The ref calls for a break and repositions the fighters in the center of the ring.
Check out the look on Smith's face as he threw that strike - that's one determined fighter!
Smith is in a dominant position here, looking for a kimura. Kazuraba looks calm but he's in trouble here. Smith gets his leg over his opponent's head and yanks on the arm.

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:30 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kimura). Rodney Smith!
Rodney Smith got down on his knees post fight and begged the management for a title shot. 'Please, I want that title shot so bad! Give it to me!'
