LAS VEGAS – Iganacio Bahamondes’s biggest career win came with a bit of mix feelings.
The rising lightweight contender was thrilled to get his hand raised Saturday on the main card of UFC 313 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, but was sad to see opponent Jalin Turner hang up his gloves at 29.
Bahamondes (17-5 MMA, 6-2 UFC) submitted Turner (14-9 MMA, 7-6 UFC) early in the first round of their bout, and almost immediately after Turner told Bahamondes he was done, just before then confirming the same with the media moments after.
