Bowman looks over to his corner - he wants some instructions but his corner are not responding. Keller gets back to full guard.
Keller throwing strikes off his back to little effect.
Bowman seems content to control from guard here. He's going to have to remain active though if he doesn't want to get stood back up. Keller has been looking to land a fair amount of strikes on the ground. He might be looking to soften his opponent up in order to work for a submission.#T2# Well. There's a bit of a lull in the action here and the crowd are starting to get restless. Bowman trying to pass the guard but can't manage it just yet. #SUB# Keller is working actively from the bottom, looking for submissions. He's escaped his hips to the side and he's going for an armbar! Bowman has his hands clasped together but Keller extends and breaks Bowman's desperate grasp, forcing a tap out due to armbar! Nice BJJ displayed there by Keller.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:33 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Floyd Keller!
