Clay defeated Frank Sforza via submission (guillotine choke) at 1:17 of Round 2 at Bellator 185 on Friday in Uncasville, Conn.
ANALYSIS
The story of this fight is extremely easy to tell. Sforza is a short and stocky wrestler. He came out looking for takedowns. He landed several, but each time he ended up caught in a guillotine choke. As he got more and more tired, it became harder and harder to escape the guillotine. In the second round, he went for yet another takedown. Once again, Clay caught him in a guillotine. This time, Sforza could not escape, and he submitted. Clay improves to 1-1 in Bellator and 7-2 overall with the victory.
