Ruiz lands a beauty of a right hand that gets the crowd cheering.

Goldberg feints and then dives in with a takedown. That was a long way out but the feint bought him enough time to close the distance and complete the takedown. Now we'll play guard for a bit and see who can get the better of that position.
Goldberg stands up and looks to throw the legs aside to pass to side control. Ruiz swivels though and keeps the full guard.
Ruiz is trying to keep Goldberg in close.

Goldberg content to sit in guard, stalling... Great. Oh but he could get punished here because Ruiz has locked up a guillotine! Ruiz's face is contorted as he sqeezes tight on the submission attempt - will he finish? Goldberg is holding on here and Ruiz must be using up a lot of energy. Goldberg has gone limp! He's out! He's out cold! Ruiz gets to his feet, tossing aside his stricken foe. Arms raised, he milks the applause from the crowd. Great submission!
