Kiptanui working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. Araya doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Kiptanui is tightening it up a little... Araya has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! Araya reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! Araya taps out! nice BJJ there by Kiptanui!
