Marcin Tybura exploited the lack of dimension in the game of his heavy-handed dance partner.
Tybura walked through considerable fire. Tuivasa blasted him with a series of standing elbows, one of which opened a cut on his scalp. The 33-fight veteran kept his cool under duress, closed the distance behind a one-two and completed a takedown. Tybura hammered away with sustained ground-and-pound and patiently waited for an opening to present itself. Tuivasa chose to go belly down and exposed his neck in the process. Soon after, the fight-ending choke was in place.
It was not an aesthetically pleasing exercise. St. Preux pawed with jab, mixed in a few front kicks to the body and fired occasional body-head combinations. Nzechukwu seemed hesitant to pull the trigger, until a left uppercut from the Strikeforce veteran dropped him to a knee in the third round. St. Preux, 40, struggled to keep pace down the stretch. Nzechukwu tore into him with knees to the body and sharp one-twos, hunting a finish that ultimately eluded him.
Dulgarian stormed out of the gate with a dominant first round, overwhelming the Duke Roufus protégé with takedowns, mat returns, ground-and-pound and submission attempts; he was ambitious enough to try a Peruvian necktie before reconsidering his options. Rodriguez stayed composed, landed a few close-range knee strikes in the middle stanza and waited for the Factory X standout to run out of gas.
The Fortis MMA export slowly tightened her arms into a face crank, then transitioned to the rear-naked choke to force an immediate tapout The submission was Chiasson’s first since she dispatched Kianzad with the same maneuver at “The Ultimate Fighter 28” Finale on Nov. 30, 2018.Meerschaert secured multiple takedowns, advanced position without much resistance and controlled the flow of action with superior grappling. He grounded Barberena midway through the middle stanza, progressed to the back and bit down on the face crank. From there, Meerschaert tightened the vice until his counterpart blacked out.
