Rising heavyweight star Tom Aspinall continued to impress, as the British contender submitted Alexander Volkov in the first round of their UFC Fight Night main event at the O2 Arena in London.

 

Aspinall showed off his speed and striking accuracy immediately as he pushed the pace on Volkov and then put him on the mat less than a minute into the fight. Aspinall bloodied his opponent while they were grounded, but Volkov was able to get back to his feet just before the midway point of the frame. He didn’t get to stay there long, as Aspinall scored a second takedown with under two minutes to go. And this time, the Atherton product closed the show, forcing a tap out due to a straight armlock at 3:45 of the first round.

With the win, the No.11-ranked Aspinall moves to 12-2. The No.6-ranked Volkov falls to 34-10.

British featherweight contender Arnold Allen saved his biggest and best performance for his home crowd, as he extended his current winning streak to nine with a first-round stoppage of Dan Hooker in the UFC Fight Night co-main event.

 

Allen tripped while throwing a kick early in the first round, but that prompted the Brit to unleash a barrage of power shots upstairs that had Hooker in deep trouble for a spell. Hooker did fire back, but after a brief respite, Allen unloaded with both hands again, added knees and elbows, and this time, referee Dan Movahedi had seen enough, halting the fight at 2:33 of the opening frame.

The fight was on the mat in the second minute of round two, but it was McCann still in control, and though Carolina finally got on the board with her strikes in the closing stages of the frame, a wild takedown by McCann returned momentum to the side of the crowd favorite.
