Three fighters. Three wins. Three submissions.
Almeida and Nogueira both won with arm-in guillotines. Mir won with a kneebar. All three showed great smoothness and fluidity in moving from position to position. Mir showed some great open guard work against Brock Lesnar, manuering with the speed and balance you usually see out of much smaller fighters.
And Nogueira's half-guard sweep of Tim Sylvia was perfection. Nobody works the half-guard in MMA better than Minotauro. It was downright inspiring, for a wannabe half-guard player like meself.
