Dream 6: Melvin Manhoef vs Gegard Mousasi
Dream 6 Middleweight Grand Prix Semi-Final Bout #1: Melvin Manhoef vs Gegard Mousasi
Round 1: Mousasi shoots but Manhoef sprawls well with his back to a turnbuckle. After a prolonged whizzer, Mousasi puts it on the floor and takes the Dutchman’s back. Manhoef spins and Mousasi mounts him momentarily, then spins and slaps on a lightning quick triangle. Manhoef stands with Mousasi still attached and lunges head first, driving Gegard’s lower back into the mat, but it only worsens his predicament. As soon as the fighters land, Mousasi adjusts and tightens the triangle and Manhoef is forced to tap. Very impressive submission and possibly a huge advantage for the Armenian moving into the finals.
