Brendan Allen Makes Good On Main-Event Showing
2 years agoTaking advantage of the late change to main-event status, Brendan Allen took the spotlight opportunity to earn a third-round submission win over the favorite Andre Muniz on Saturday. In 14:25 of action, Allen tallied 42 significant strikes (just one less than Muniz). The difference came in control time, with Allen holding 4:12 of control time compared to that of just 15 seconds for Muniz. After securing a takedown from a failed kick on Muniz's part, Allen stayed patient and worked his way to the back to lock in a rear-naked choke for the main-event win. Allen improves to 9-2 in the UFC and earns a win over a dangerous rising star.
