We've had a slow start to the round here - hopefully the action picks up.#SUB2#
Sanchez in half guard on the top. He's looking for a kimura... He's got it locked and he's managed to free his trapped foot. Cheng tries to escape but it's on too tight and he has to tap! Great BJJ skills there from Sanchez!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 1:55 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (Kimura). Ernesto Sanchez! |
