Cromoljenko trying to pass the guard but can't manage it just yet.

Cromoljenko sitting in guard doing not very much at all here. Richards doesn't need a second invitation though! He's locked up a guillotine and he's squeezing tight! That is tiiiiiiiiight! Cromoljenko 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 Richards - great work!
