Cortez working from the bottom, still in full guard. He's managed to get a loose triangle. James doesn't seem to be doing much to defend here, obviously he feels comfortable in the position. Oh but Cortez is tightening it up a little... James has to be careful here... He's got his foot tucked under now, this looks tight! James reacted too slowly and this one could be over in a matter of seconds! YES! James taps out! Nice BJJ there by Cortez!
