The second bout of Strikeforce Tate vs Rousey featured Caros Fodor taking on Pat Healy in a lightweight matchup.
The fighters quickly engaged, grappling against the cage. Fodor landed a pair of solid punches as they separated from the clinch and then dumped Healy on the ground a moment later. Fodor worked to get something going on top in half-guard but Healy escaped and tripped Fodor to the ground. Healy worked ground and pound over the remainder of the round, perhaps doing enough to swing the round back in his favor.
Healy landed a low kick and pressed in for a takedown that Fodor stuffed early in the second round. Healy continued to work for the takedown, unable to get Fodor down over the course of a minute of struggling. Fodor finally was stuck on his rear end against the fence and as he attempted to stand back to his feet nearly had his back taken. The fighters fell back to the ground with Healy into side control. Little damage occurred in the round but Healy controlled the location of the fight. Fodor searched for submissions off of his back but Healy saw them coming and made his way back to side control, then to full mount. A trickle of blood came from Healy's nose as he stood at the end of the round.
Fodor connected on a right hand to start the third but Healy soon closed in grabbing a single leg and pulled Fodor to the ground. Healy was quickly back into full mount and smothered Fodor after being pulled back to half-guard. Healy landed a few punches but didn't manage much damage from top position. Healy attacked for an arm triangle that Fodor nicely escaped from and attacked for a heel hook. Healy spun out of the leg lock and again zoned on in the arm triangle choke. This time the choke was in deep and Fodor gave in and tapped.
The official end came at 3:35 of the third round with Pat Healy winning via arm triangle choke submission.
