Fry is staying cool under pressure, defending well against the rear naked choke attempt from his opponent.
You know, I was talking to some of our celebrities at ringside tonight and they were split right down the middle on who was going to win this fight.
Svensson's corner are shouting for him to control the position and he seems happy to oblige.#T2#
Neither fighter has done anything of merit for a good minute or two here and the crowd are not happy about it.#SUB2#
Svensson looking for the choke but no joy.
Svensson softening up his opponent with strikes here.
Svensson is riding his opponent, not letting Fry buck him off.
More stalling from Svensson.
Svensson lands with a couple of good shots - one to the side of the head and one questionable shot that could be viewed as to the back of the head but the referee lets it go.

Svensson is working for the choke. I would put my money on him to finish from this position. He's rolled onto his back and has dragged Fry with him. Fry is trying to defend but Svensson has an arm under the chin now! Fry grimaces and is forced to tap out!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:26 of round 3, we have a winner by way of Submission (RNC). Torsten Svensson!
