Very nice submission game by Herman, he's definitely been improving and working on new stuff. I would've never expected a sub from him. I think that's early lead for SoTN.

Impressive wrestling improvement from Noke but better guard work from Herman.

@Digler Tap or Snap baby. It would be worse if someone like Aoki was doing the submission so he can be somewhat thankful lol.

I love that leglock.  I don't think there are enough in the UFC. It's one of my favorite subs

I have Benavidez picked for the win, but I honestly wouldn't be heart broken at all if Wineland won.  I like this Wineland kid.

Yep, I hate modern hip-hop.  That pretty boy swag is a classic example as to why.

@MegaDave

Leglock is a tricky submission to successfully execute hence why we don't see it much.
