Kawajiri pretty much got destroyed in round 1, but Ian wasn't really putting forth the most aggressive of efforts and slipped through with a definite round win, but not really a fight-ending performance. As a result, Kawajiri came back in the 2nd with much more aggressive/effective wrestling, and was able to take this fight from McCall pretty much round after the 1st, with effective ground skills and GnP.
