Slice has an Americana. Filipovic didn't react quickly enough there and he's in big trouble now! He tries to squirm out but is forced to tap! Slice is delighted and gyrates in front of the ring girls. They seem to like the attention - it'll be interesting to see if Slice hooks up with any of them at the after show party.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 3:57 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (Americana). Tarik Slice!
A less than humble Tarik Slice misjudged his post fight interview somewhat and came across a little too arrogant whilst trying to hype up his own abilities.
