Horrible takedown attempt by Raj or perhaps it was just good defense by Denghui, which made it look bad.

Denghui drives through with a really nice takedown into side control.

Denghui is working to tighten his grip on Raj's neck. He's isolated an arm and is working for an arm triangle. Raj has recognised the danger and is trying to turn with the submission but Denghui is really squeezing tight and eventually Raj passes out! Denghui breaks the hold and jumps onto the cage to celebrate! Submission of the night, I'd say!
