Richards keeping moving, preventing Meyers from controlling successfully.

Richards working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Meyers doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Richards is tightening it up a little... Meyers has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Meyers reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Meyers taps out! Nice BJJ there by Richards!
