Excellent takedown into side control there by Cali. #SUB2#

Cali breaks the hold and jumps onto the cage to celebrate! Submission of the night, I'd say!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:18 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Arm Triangle). Marcus Cali!
The defeated Tyler Cooper had this to say: 'Im gunna keep training and come back better and stronger.'.
