A short uppercut from Manning. Steele has been talking about how he's improved his wrestling in the run up to the fight so let's see if that's enough to sway the balance. Steele pulls Manning into guard.
We could do with one of the fighters taking the initiative a bit more on the ground - they're both waiting to capitalize on a mistake. Manning seems content to control from guard here. He's going to have to remain active though if he doesn't want to get stood back up. Manning is posturing up here but Steele has hold of an arm and he's gone for an armbar! Manning tries to roll out but it's too tight and Manning has to tap! Slick submission there by Steele!
