Welterweight Ryan Larson utterly dominated Erik Apple for most of two rounds before finally submitting him with a triangle choke at 3:14 of round 2.
Larson got a quick take down on Erik Apple in the first round, moved to the mounted crucifix or Salaverry position but failed to do much damage from the top. Larson threatened with a kimura attempt briefly but Apple escaped and attacked Larson with a heel hook in the waning moments of the round.
It was more of the same in the second with Larson getting an early take down and moving through a series of dominant positions before choking out Apple. Larson trains under Greg Jackson in New Mexico.
