His sweep ready to be launched, Eldar proceeded to flip his opponent and submit him on the foot.
Known for his speedy submissions, Moldavia’s Eldar Rafigaev has struck again in Europe. Fighting in the ultra-heavyweight division at the Paris Open, he faced Paulo da Silva in the final, and a transition to a foot lock dashed Paulo’s hopes in under 30 seconds.
After pulling with no grips and being penalized, Eldar pulled again and landed on half-guard. With a firm grip on the collar and pants, he unbalanced his opponent and projected him, landing on the other side already in position to attack with the winning foot lock.
