I'm still a jiu jitsu scrub, but he needed to get that guys arm all the way across his body for the triangle finish, right?

There are three things you can do to tighten a triangle -

1) Take the angle
2) Pull down the head
3) Pass the arm across

Usually two of the three is enough. Islam was only ever doing one at any given time.

At the very end of the round there I think Makhachev just gently stuck his foot over Wade's mouth

He's shown some promise, but it's hard to gauge where he's really at because with the exception of a loss to Khabilov his UFC resume is a Who's Who of Who's That?

Was there a single significant strike in that fight?

E: kind of reminds me of, I think, Sakuraba-Newton? Minus the part at the end where Sakuraba remembered striking was allowed

Wade's corner, for the last 3 mins, was definitively not very helpful I think.

Islam would punch Wade pretty good every time before taking him down. After the takedowns there was mostly pitter patter ground strikes.

I don't understand how Robertson can just stand there, flat footed, with his hands down, without getting lit up. The standup phase of this fight makes no sense.
