For context, Ronaldo Souza fought Hermansson several years ago, and had several opportunities to grapple with Hermansson. Hermansson completely shut Jacare down.
Last night Dolidze showed that the closed guard is not dead in MMA.
In the first round, Hermansson took Doldize down, only for Dolidze to instantly sweep him with a pendulum sweep.
In round 2, Hermansson took Dolidze down again, and instead of going for the pendulum, Doldize locked up a modified triangle (no gif).
After slipping out of the triangle, Doldize continued hunting submissions off his back, ultimately catching Hermansson with a calf slicer, which he used to finish Hermansson with ground and pound.
