My spies in St Petersburg MMA Gym inform me that Stepanov has been getting involved in the gym's BJJ sparring sessions. Let's see whether that pays dividends! Brakeley is looking to escape. Nice strikes from Stepanov there. Stepanov throwing punches and elbows but they're not doing any damage. Stepanov seems like he's working for an arm triangle here. He's freed his trapped foot and he's rotating nicely. Brakeley is in big trouble! He's tapping out! This one is aaaaaaaaaaaall over!
