Thoressen takes a little breather and maintains the position. The referee will be looking for him to stay active from such a dominant position though.
Thoressen jumps to side control looking for an arm triangle but Shinhan manages to avoid the submission attempt.
Thoressen is working to tighten his grip on Shinhan's neck. He's isolated an arm and is working for an arm triangle. Shinhan has recognised the danger and is trying to turn with the submission but Thoressen is really squeezing tight and eventually Shinhan passes out! Thoressen breaks the hold and jumps onto the cage to celebrate! Submission of the night, I'd say!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:53 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Arm Triangle). Magnus Thoressen! |
