Said Nurmagomedov made short work of Cody Stamann tonight on the main card of UFC 270, first catching him with spinning techniques on the feet and then during a scramble following a takedown attempt he was able to lock in a guillotine choke to force a fast finish.
Round One:
Insie leg kick from Nurmagomedov and a punch behind it. Spinning backfist now and then a spinning sidekick to the body for good measure that lands.
Body kick from Nurmagomedov and a missed spinning backfist. Stamann pressing forward though and gets into the clinch and starts working for a takedown.
However, Nurmagomedov tries to sweep him instead and then when that doesn’t quite pay off he locks in a guillotine choke submission and goes to the mat with it, producing a fast tapout from the grimacing Stamann.
Impressive performance from Nurmagomedov, securing the submission finish just 47 seconds into the opening round.
