Bode has to defend the other arm for all he's worth... but Santos has managed to get that arm free too and he's tightening the choke! Bode taps out and looks absolutely disgusted with himself. Santos doesn't care though - he's delighted!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:58 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (RNC). Tony Santos!
