HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill. — Chicago police officer and Pride veteran Mike Russow put the clamps on Jason Guida  on Saturday with a guillotine choke at 2:13 of the first round in Adrenaline MMA’s first offering.

Before an estimated crowd of 2,500 at the Sears Center Arena, the two local fighters, backed by raucous partisans, traded shots before Russow took Guida to the mat with a single-leg takedown. Guida immediately made his way back to his feet but was quickly taken back to the mat. His next attempt to rise off the mat led to the fight-ending submission.

As Guida posted, Russow locked up a guillotine choke and began to squeeze, forcing Guida to tap out.
