The fighters bow as they face eachother in the middle of the mat and we are under way. Trucks gets to the clinch - let's see what his plan is here. Majere is trying to trip Trucks. He has hold of a leg but Trucks is hopping around, keeping his balance for the moment. Majere persists though and gets the takedown into guard. Score +2 for takedown into guard / half guard: Trucks (0) vs (2) Majere Trucks is actively looking for submissions from his back. He's worked himself a little space on the bottom and seems to be going for a triangle. No, he's switched into an armbar! That was slick! Majere rolls with it to try and escape but Trucks cranks on the arm and Majere is forced to tap out! This one is aaaaaaaaall over!
