UFC free fight: Bryce Mitchell pulls off rare twister finish vs. Matt Sayles

Bryce Mitchell pulled off just the second twister finish in UFC history against Matt Sayles.

Mitchell faced Sayles in December 2019 at UFC on ESPN 7 and put his name on the map with the rare submission.

Just 20 seconds into the fight, Mitchell landed a takedown. He was able to secure dominant position on the ground – transitioning from full mount, to back control, and finally into a twister, which he pulled off in the remaining minute of Round 1, forcing Sayles to tap out.
