Tikka has managed to work for a loose triangle. I think Mcfadden should be able to defend this one pretty easily though. Oh, Tikka has tightened it up now! Mcfadden should have reacted faster there - he's in big trouble and yes, he's tapped out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:23 of round 3, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Lauri Tikka!
A very excited looking Lauri Tikka made sure he remembered to thank all the fans both in the arena and on the internet. He said all the coolest people spend all day on MMA websites, which got a big reaction.
