Daemon gets back to full guard.
Monkey wants to pass the guard but Daemon is keeping the position.
Daemon has his feet on Monkey's thighs here. He's pushed Monkey off and worked for a very quick armbar from the bottom! He's flipped onto his stomach and he's cranking hard on the arm! Monkey screams in pain and taps out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:18 of round 4, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Dark Daemon!
An intense looking Dark Daemon took to the microphone post fight and gave a little speech: 'I beat you twice now Zerra. I don't want to see you in front of me in the cage again!'.
