Sam Patterson’s UFC debut didn’t go as he planned, but his second opportunity was more in line with his blueprint.
On the prelims of UFC 297, Patterson (11-2-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) made quick work of fellow welterweight Yohan Lainesse (9-3 MMA, 1-3 UFC) with a rear-naked choke submission at 2:03 of Round 1.
