Nice takedown defense from Helenius. No joy for Okoye on that attempt.
Okoye is trying hard to land a takedown here. Helenius sprawls well and keeps this one on the feet.
Helenius tries a counter takedown but it's more of a dummy move, and he uses it to push himself away.

You can see the frustration on Okoye's face, being in this tough position on the bottom.
Helenius is working to tighten his grip on Okoye's neck. He's isolated an arm and is working for an arm triangle. Okoye has recognised the danger and is trying to turn with the submission but Helenius is really squeezing tight and eventually Okoye passes out! Helenius breaks the hold and jumps onto the ropes to celebrate! Submission of the night, I'd say!
