Test Five has managed to pull guard. Let's see whether he can work an aggressive guard. It will also be interesting to see what tactics Tester uses from the top position.
Tester wants to stand but Test Five is controlling his posture from full guard. #SUB#
Test Five has his feet on Tester's thighs here. He's pushed Tester off and worked for a very quick armbar from the bottom! He's flipped onto his stomach and he's cranking hard on the arm! Tester screams in pain and taps out! This one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:43 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Heavyweight Test Five! |
