Jordan Vucenic continues to make a strong case he’s owed a UFC call.
In the Cage Warriors 134 main event, Vucenic (9-1) used a beautiful back-take to move into position for a submission of James Hedin (6-2) via rear-naked choke.
The finish came 1:36 into Round 2 and marked Vucenic’s first title defense as Cage Warriors featherweight champion a successful one. Vucenic first attempted a standing arm-triangle choke. He used the threat and momentum to quickly backpack Hedin. From there, Vucenic worked and worked for the proper grip – and eventually got it.
