Charles Jourdain notched his first submission win in the the UFC in impressive fashion.
The UFC featherweight submitted Lando Vannata in the first round of their main-card bout at Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 205 in Las Vegas. The official stoppage came at the 2:32 mark.
Jourdain (13-4-1 MMA, 4-3-1 UFC) and Vannata (12-6-2 MMA, 4-6-2 UFC) traded heavy shots early, with both fighters having their moments. Almost two minutes into the round, Vannata shot for a takedown. He was almost immediately caught in a one-armed guillotine choke.
From there, as Vannata tried to squirm out, Jourdain kept re-adjusting until he had control of the guard and was able to work his way to a two-handed guillotine to get the tap.
This is just the second submission loss in Vannata’s professional career. Prior to UFC Fight Night 205, he had only been submitted once, in his UFC debut against Tony Ferguson back in 2016.
