The official result of Luiz Claudio’s fight with Yabna N’Tchalá at Fight Music Show: Fight Night 2 reads as a win via kneebar for N’Tchalá.
That doesn’t really tell the full story.
Video from the Oct. 29 fight shows Claudio struggling mightily for an ankle lock, only to get his legs entangled in N’Tchalá’s as the two jockey for position. N’Tchalá winds up, well, right in the perfect position to force a fight-ending tap from Claudio.
