Mateusz Gamrot submitted Jeremy Stephens in the opening moments of their fight at UFC Vegas 31

Mateusz Gamrot and Jeremy Stephens clashed in a lightweight bout on the main card of UFC Vegas 31. The fight was Jeremy Stephens' first lightweight bout in years.

Mateusz Gamrot perhaps appreciated the dangerous striker in Jeremy Stephens as he shot for a takedown as soon as the bout started. Upon taking Stephens to the mat, Gamrot gradually established control and locked in a nasty kimura. He then put a lot of power into the submission, forcing Jeremy Stephens to tap.

The fight ended in just over a minute of the first round, helping Gamrot sail to victory and mark his nineteenth career victory. His professional mixed martial arts record now reads 19-1-0.


When did Jeremy Stephens last win inside the octagon?

The two exchanged blows for the majority of the fight. Midway through round two, Jeremy Stephens knocked Josh Emmett down with a devastating and precise strike.
