LAS VEGAS – Sedriques Dumas’ quick submission win at Dana White’s Contender Series 52 was inspired by Jon Jones.
Dumas (7-0) submitted Matej Penaz (6-1) with a standing guillotine choke just 47 seconds into the first round Tuesday. The quick submission earned “The Slim Reaper” a UFC contract.
In his post-fight speech, Dumas shouted out former light heavyweight champion Jon Jones, who used the same technique to choke Lyoto Machida out cold in their title fight at UFC 140.
