Fabrício Werdum submits late replacement Walt Harris with ease:

Werdum once more displays his BJJ pedigree.

A late back injury to powerhouse Heavyweight contender Derrick 'The Black Beast' Lewis has forced him from his clash with former champ Fabrício Werdum at UFC 216, with the recently meteoric riser Walt Harris promoted from his Prelim bout with Mark Godbeer to replace Lewis and face grappling ace Werdum. Recovering from a razor thin decision defeat to Shamil Abdurakhimov, 'The Vault' Harris stopped both Chase Sherman and Cyril Asker to put the Heavyweight division on notice. Huge opportunity for the veteran Harris.

The opening of three scheduled rounds seen Werdum miss with an early high kick before immediately attacking a single leg, establishing mount with superb ease and then snatching the back of Harris through a scramble and instead of pushing for a rear-naked choke, switched to an armbar forcing a quick tap from the courageous Walt Harris.
