That's one minute gone in the round.
Robinson avoiding any damage from the ground and pound.
Robinson has his feet on Xavier's thighs here. He's pushed Xavier off and worked for a very quick armbar from the bottom! He's flipped onto his stomach and he's cranking hard on the arm! Xavier screams in pain and taps out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:25 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). George Robinson!
George Robinson is the new light heavyweight champion!
