TripleB Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Lost a tough one last night or this morning, or whenever. from mmajunkie.com: One of the featherweight tournament's early favorites, Marlon Sandro (13-0), did little to impress for the opening round-and-a-half of his bout with Matt Jaggers (9-5). But things changed quickly when the Nova Unioa fighter locked in an impressive submission to end the fight. Sandro used a controlling, methodical pace to smother Jaggers in the opening frame, but did little to show the promise of a tournament favorite. When Sandro tried for a head-and-arm choke, Jaggers remained calm and slipped free from the hold, returning to his feet. Sandro quickly re-applied the hold in a standing position, and squeezed hard with the rare move. Jaggers squirmed but was unable to escape, and the Team Wolfpack fighter fell to the floor as he drifted into unconsciousness at 2:57 seconds of the second round. Sandro stays undefeated in moving to the second round of the featherweight grand prix, while Jaggers' loss snaps a two-fight win streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drooke Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Thanks for the info. I didn't even know this fight had happened. When I looked into it I saw Mo Lawal won again. Ol King seems to be doing quite well in Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
