Steely looking to control the pace of the fight rather than finish it.
Ping content to sit in guard, stalling... Great. Oh but he could get punished here because Steely has locked up a guillotine! Steely's face is contorted as he sqeezes tight on the submission attempt - will he finish? Ping is holding on here and Steely must be using up a lot of energy. Ping has gone limp! He's out! He's out cold! Steely gets to his feet, tossing aside his stricken foe. Arms raised, he milks the applause from the crowd. Great submission!
