UFC 286 video: Muhammad Mokaev injures leg, scores last-minute submission of Jafel Filho

LONDON – Muhammad Mokaev went from almost getting submitted to notching a submission of his own at UFC 286.

Mokaev’s (9-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) grappling was in full display but late in Round 3, Jafel Filho (14-3 MMA, 0-1 UFC) locked in a tight kneebar which had him in big trouble. Mokaev, who already came into the fight with an injured shoulder, toughed it out and wound up cinching a rear-naked choke at the 4:32 mark of Round 3 Saturday at The O2.

Check out the replay of Mokaev’s finish below (via Twitter):

Mokaev remained unbeaten after scoring his second-straight third-round submission. When climbing the cage to celebrate, the 22-year-old pointed to his shoulder and knee to signal his injuries, and hopped out of the octagon.
