Saidov tries for an arm triangle. That looks pretty tight to me. Is this one over!?! Possibly, maybe, no Saidov has let go of the choke. Obviously it wasn't as tight as we thought!
Wooooo! Give it up for these two warriors! They are putting on a show!

Saidov has hold of Yakinoff's arm here. He's working for an Americana. It looks like he might have it!
