Franks slips effortlessly into side control - very nice.
We've had a slow start to the round here - hopefully the action picks up.#SUB2#
Franks goes for an armbar! This could be all over! Wait, no, Mischiek rolls with the submission and now he's on top in Franks's guard! Nice work there by Mischiek!
The ref warns both fighters not to hold the cage as they work up against the meshing.#SUB2#
Mischiek has a momentary lapse of concentration, allowing Franks to throw up a leg and lock on what appears to be a pretty tight triangle! Mischiek is fighting it off but it's all too little too late - Franks pulls down on the head and he's put Mischiek to sleep! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:57 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Jared Franks!
Nathan Mischiek spoke after the fight, saying 'You know, I train my butt off to even be in this ring right now. And I'm just honoured to even get a chance to compete tonight. I'll be back. Thank you guys. '.
