That's two minutes gone in the round. Silva trying to secure his dominant position for a moment - making sure Dennis doesn't escape. It looks like Silva might be adopting somewhat of a lay and pray gameplan here, which I'm sure won't go down too well with the paying fans in attendance... Or the ring announcers come to think of it. Silva is cranking Dennis's head sideways - that looks painful. He's managed to get his other arm under the chin and this looks bad for Dennis! He's tightened the choke and Dennis is tapping out!
