Carroll seems to be taking a bit of a break to think of his next move. He lands a short punch in the meantime. #SUB# Carroll has hold of the far side arm. He's working for the Kimura, can Beezy defend it? Carroll steps over the head and cranks it - Beezy is tapping out! That was textbook stuff right there - nice submission victory for Carroll!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:30 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kimura). Kendrick Carroll!
