chonan would not beat anderson again, but his sub wasnt lucky. he tried it, he executed it properly, he got the tap. not to mention he was winning the fight before that, something most people on this board dont seem to know.

Sobral has the better ground game, no doubt. But Mousasi has enough ground game to avoid the sub and take the fight back to the feet.
