Rizal is going oldschool here, as he tries to force Crawford to tap using a forearm choke. This isn't 1993 though, so Crawford shrugs it off. Fantastic stuff here - a very entertaining period of action, which has drawn cheers from the crowd. Crawford tries to buck Rizal off but Rizal takes his back! Crawford knows he needs to get back to his feet asap. He's simply no match for Rizal on the ground. Crawford is trying to stand back up.
