Sherdog’s 2022 Submission of the Year via benjaminduffy
However, to call Ray’s submission simply a twister sells the moment short. While Ray had been attempting to generate the spinal tension that usually elicits the tap in a twister, he was working for it from the opposite side of the usual, and when Pettis submitted, the primary source of pain had clearly been Ray’s legs compressing his ribs, which were turned perpendicular to Ray’s.
For Ray, the win was an instant game-changer. No longer an afterthought in the PFL lightweight race, he landed a playoff berth, where he would once again meet Pettis. “Braveheart” prevailed once more in the rematch, and punched his ticket to the championship fight, where he came up short against 2022 winner
, but picking up a few votes for Sherdog’s “Comeback Fighter of the Year” nonetheless. As the opening salvo of that comeback season, Ray’s modified twister submission of Pettis is our “Submission of the Year.”
