Yeah, that last shot was from waaay outside, and slow.  Nazare just kinda fell over.  He did a good job of ending up on top in the end though.

He tried to sprawl a bit that time, but it seemed like he couldn't decide if he wanted to sprawl, or go for a choke, and ended up failing at both.

The first round was Nazare's.  The 2nd was close.

good job of the ref ignoring the crowd.  It might not be pretty, but it is dominant.
