UFC Vegas 11 Prelims Video Highlights: KOs And Submissions Galore
It was finishes galore on the UFC Vegas 11 preliminary card with the likes of Damon Jackson, Randy Costa and Jessica-Rose Clark putting in work.
Saturday’s undercard fighters turned in a 75 percent finish rate with a 3-3 split between knock outs and submissions.
David Dvorak (no. 14) def. Jordan Espinosa (no. 13) by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
Dvorak made easy work of Espinosa, chewing up the leg over the course of 15 minutes.

Damon Jackson def. Mirsad Bektic by submission via guillotine choke (1:21, R3)
Jackson slapped on tight guillotine-after-tight guillotine and, despite controlling the fight, Bektic’s luck ran out in round three.

Mayra Bueno Silva def. Mara Romero Borella by submission via arm bar (2:29, R1)
Borella was out of her depth against Bueno Silva on the ground, surviving an initial triangle attempt before succuming to the armbar shortly after. Borella looked a little too comfortable in her opponent’s guard until her arm wasn’t.
Clinical precision!
—- Bueno Silva locks in the armbar from the triangle positon!

Jessica-Rose Clark def. Sarah Alpar by TKO via strikes (4:21, R3)
Clark basically beat Alpar twice. Miss Jessy Jess landed a legal, nose-shattering knee that immediately had referee Chris Tognoni involved. Tognoni, who botched the Mike Rodrigez-Ed Herman fight last week, checked the replay, ruled the blow was legal and then… continued the fight? Poor Alpar survived a couple minutes longer in one should have been ruled an immediate TKO.
“You were not down… I never waived the fight off.”

Darrick Minner def. TJ Laramie by submission via guillotine choke (0:52, R1)
Minner’s highly-touted submission game was apparently lost on Laramie, who quickly found himself in an ultra-tight guillotine. The tap came moments later.

Randy Costa def. Journey Newson by KO via head kick (0:41, R1)
Blink and you would have missed Costa blast Newson to another dimension with a sub-one-minute head kick KO.
Don’t mess with the Zohan!
@RandyCosta135 with a MASSIVE head kick highlight!

Andre Ewell def. Irwin Rivera by split decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28)
Bad luck continued for anyone named Rivera at UFC Vegas 11. Ewell handily led a fight that should have been a unanimous decision for him.
CONSTANT PRESSURE.

Tyson Nam def. Jerome Rivera by TKO via strikes (0:34, R2)
Nam put the pressure on in round one and made a small adjustment in the second to quickly and definitively put away Rivera.
THE COUNTER RIGHT! @TysonNam can throw –s at bantamweight!
