Johansson thows an elbow strike that misses. Emelianenko gets hold of full guard and has managed to get a loose guillotine attempt. Johansson doesn't seem too bothered but Emelianenko quickly shifts his position and has tightened the hold! Johansson is in big trouble now - he's going a funny colour - he's tapping out! Nice finish there! Johansson really should have spotted the danger earlier though... either incompetence or over-confidence has resulted in a big L on his record.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:35 of round 3, we have a winner by way of Submission (Guillotine). Fedor Emelianenko!
Fedor Emelianenko retains his heavyweight title!
