That's two minutes gone in the round.
Second Name scoring with strikes to the body and head.
Second Name seems like he's working for an arm triangle here. He's freed his trapped foot and he's rotating nicely. Glass is in big trouble! He's tapping out! This one is aaaaaaaaaaaall over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:30 of round 3, we have a winner by way of Submission (Arm Triangle). First Name Second Name!
