Tovington with a couple of shots to the head there. Not particularly brutal.
Tovington has to be careful here, sitting in the guard of a superior BJJ player.#SUB2#
Swathe has thrown up a leg looking for a triangle. Tovington doesn't defend quickly enough and Swathe has managed to lock this one up! Can Tovington escape?! NO! He's tapping out! Damn, that was a quick submission - congrats to Swathe on a fantastic submission victory.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:31 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). Dorian Swathe! |
