Submission Underground 4 Results

 

 

Submission Underground just concluded the latest edition of the event. In the 4th edition of the event Dillon Danis went up against Jake Shields, Paolo Miyao against Urijah Faber and Durinho squared off against John Combs.

While there was plenty of excitements the event sorely lacked in submissions in fact all 4 matches from the main card found their conclusions in the over time.

 Jake Shields defeats Dillon Danis via escape time in overtime

 
Paulo Miyao defeats Urijah Faber via escape time in overtime
Nathan Orchard defeats Mike Perez via escape time in overtime
Gilbert Burns defeats John Combs via submission in overtime

 

While Miyao was dedicated to his usual butt scooting there was plenty of good wrestling going around. Especially from Jake Shields.

Shields was adamant to keep catching Danis in takedowns even as Danis insisted on trying to place a guillotine. In the end Danis fell short into overtime much to the chagrin of John Danaher who complimented Shields on his work ethic and more in a post attached below:

 

A fine win for Jake Shields tonight against Marcelo Garcia/Team McGregor standout Dillon Danis at SUG 4 tonight. Mr Shields overcame the odds (at one point he was a 7-1 underdog) to take a tough victory in the EBI format overtime on fastest escape time. It is a testimony to Mr Shields tremendous work ethic that he can take on a star grappler much younger than himself in a format that he has little experience and take a victory. It was so impressive to watch over the last two months as Mr Shields came in twice a day every day to train with the squad, some of them half his age. Most athletes with Mr Shields experience and record begin to coast in training – he never did- every session was like a contest and he took on the difficult skills of EBI overtime, particularly escapes, and made tremendous progress, despite the fact that it was far removed from his normal game and skill set. What a fine example of a mature athlete staying focused, learning new skills, adapting over time and coming through for a tight, but well deserved victory. Stockton bitches!! ??
