Obama tries for an arm triangle. That looks pretty tight to me. Is this one over!?! Possibly, maybe, no Obama has let go of the choke. Obviously it wasn't as tight as we thought! #SUB#
Obama is working to tighten his grip on Peck's neck. He's isolated an arm and is working for an arm triangle. Peck has recognised the danger and is trying to turn with the submission but Obama is really squeezing tight and eventually Peck passes out! Obama breaks the hold and jumps onto the cage to celebrate! Submission of the night, I'd say!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:55 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (Arm Triangle). Amadi Obama!
