Garcie tries to take the fight to the ground by pulling guard but can't manage it.
#TD# Garcie has managed to pull guard. Let's see whether he can work an aggressive guard. It will also be interesting to see what tactics Lee uses from the top position. Lee must be cautious of submissions here, given that his opponent has the superior Jiu Jitsu.#T1##SUB# Garcie is looking to cinch up a triangle. Lee throws the leg off to one side though and gets in tight to Garcie's body to avoid the submission. Garcie has instead reached around Lee's neck and now has a guillotine! Oh, this is biiiig trouble! Garcie arches his back and squeezes and forces the tap from his hapless opponent.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:20 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Guillotine). Roman Garcie! |
