...interesting. Sarah was winning this one relatively clearly early, then faded really fast. As she began to fade, her stamina began to reach performance-affecting levels at the same time, so it became a big problem a bit later in the fight. Though she was getting beaten down some near the end, I think this would qualify as a non-rocked submission, meaning Shayna didn’t fully beat Sarah down and then sub her to finish, but rather she beat her a bit, got in a dominant position, then locked in the sub. Sarah might wanna consider working on her Sub D if that be the case.

...interesting. Sarah was winning this one relatively clearly early, then faded really fast. As she began to fade, her stamina began to reach performance-affecting levels at the same time, so it became a big problem a bit later in the fight. Though she was getting beaten down some near the end, I think this would qualify as a non-rocked submission, meaning Shayna didn’t fully beat Sarah down and then sub her to finish, but rather she beat her a bit, got in a dominant position, then locked in the sub. Sarah might wanna consider working on her Sub D if that be the case.
