Stoppelbein closes the distance, clinches up and gets a nice trip takedown into side control. Very smooth. Score +4 for clean takedown past guard: Silva (0) vs (4) Stoppelbein
Stoppelbein is looking for a kimura. He might have it! No, Silva has escaped the position, nice work there.
Stoppelbein tries for an arm triangle. That looks pretty tight to me. Is this one over!?! Possibly, maybe, no Stoppelbein has let go of the choke. Obviously it wasn't as tight as we thought!

Stoppelbein really doesn't want to stay on the ground with Silva. If he can't get it back to his feet, it's only a matter of time before he'll be tapping out.
Stoppelbein is looking for a kimura. It's going to be difficult to finish that from half guard though and Silva defends it well.
Silva has hold of a guillotine but he's not going to be able to crank on it really with only half guard, so it's no trouble for Stoppelbein. Oh but Silva has got full guard now! Oh boy! This one could be over very soon! Stoppelbein goes limp - he's gone! Silva jumps up and celebrates with the crowd - fantastic submission finish!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:56 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Guillotine). Shogun Silva! |
