I think Rickson taps him inside of a minute.

Segal was a very good aikidoka by all accounts (7th Dan??). He was also about 100 lbs. lighter back in the day. Still, I don't think aikido goes a lot of ground work (just some locks from the knees), so if Rickson takes him down, then Segal is pretty much flapping around. End of fight comes quickly after that.
