Goodman trying to control the position.
Goodman will need to keep those long limbs tucked in whilst he's on the ground, to prevent any submissions.
Grena passes Goodman's left leg - he's now in half guard.
Goodman is looking to regain full guard. He's left an arm up in the air though and Grena has latched onto it... Big trouble! Grena pivots for an armbar - it's in tight and it Goodman is tapping in no time flat! Great counter grappling there from Grena!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:33 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Umberto Grena!
A less than humble Umberto Grena misjudged his post fight interview somewhat and came across a little too arrogant whilst trying to hype up his own abilities. |
