Hall content to sit in guard, stalling... Great. Oh but he could get punished here because Buddha has locked up a guillotine! Buddha's face is contorted as he sqeezes tight on the submission attempt - will he finish? Hall is holding on here and Buddha must be using up a lot of energy. Hall has gone limp! He's out! He's out cold! Buddha gets to his feet, tossing aside his stricken foe. Arms raised, he milks the applause from the crowd. Great submission!
