Barrientos content to sit in guard, stalling... Great. Oh but he could get punished here because Cup has locked up a guillotine! Cup's face is contorted as he sqeezes tight on the submission attempt - will he finish? Barrientos is holding on here and Cup must be using up a lot of energy. Barrientos has gone limp! He's out! He's out cold! Cup gets to his feet, tossing aside his stricken foe. Arms raised, he milks the applause from the crowd. Great submission!
