Arobieke is in close to Cortes's body, working some short punches and elbows.#SUB#
Arobieke is trying to tuck his arms in to keep them safe but Cortes has managed to isolate one of them and has got a loose triangle. Arobieke is looking to defend but Cortes has done well to lock his legs together - this could be big trouble for Arobieke! Cortes pulls down on the head and a little smile comes across his face - he knows he's got it. Yep, Arobieke taps out and this one is all over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:44 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Triangle). James Cortes! |
