Video: Leglock magician Masakazu Imanari scores 53-second submission at ONE Championship 90

If you’re fighting Masakazu Imanari, you have one mission: Do not let him touch your legs.

Won Il Kwon (6-1) did a decent job of heeding that advice for all of about 40 seconds. After that, Imanari (38-18-2) utilized his patented Tony Ferguson roll (kidding!!!) to snatch hold of his opponent’s right leg. While he was initially too far down the limb, Imanari inched his way back up the leg, gaining control of the knee and torquing the joint, forcing a tap at just 53 seconds of the ONE Championship 90 contest at Singapore Indoor Stadium.

Check out video of the finish:

The 43-year-old Imanari currently boasts a three-fighting winning streak. All three wins have come by way of submission, the longest of which took just 83 seconds.

Legend.
