#R1#
Badger throws a low kick but Complex moves out of range easily.
Badger misses with a leg kick #TD2#
and Complex counters with a nice double leg into half guard. #SUB2#
Complex seems like he's working for an arm triangle here. He's freed his trapped foot and he's rotating nicely. Badger is in big trouble! He's tapping out! This one is aaaaaaaaaaaall over!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:27 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Arm Triangle). Hero Complex!
Hero Complex seemed lost for words in his post fight interview but he remembered to thank his fans and directed everyone to his website. |
