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