Dunn trying to control the position from guard on top but Romero is wriggling around, looking for whatever he can. Romero has his hands on Dunn's head, controlling the position. #T1# Dunn trying to control but Romero is working from the bottom. Dunn stays in close to Romero's body and controls the position. #SUB# Dunn sitting in guard doing not very much at all here. Romero doesn't need a second invitation though! He's locked up a guillotine and he's squeezing tight! That is tiiiiiiiiight! Dunn paying the price for stalling here - he's pushing hard on the arm trying to free himself but it's no use! He's tapped! WOW, quick submission from Romero - great work!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:51 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Guillotine). Hector Romero! |
