Vicente Luque put on a stunning display as he earned a first-round submission victory over Michael Chiesa at UFC 265, which took place at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. After it looked like Chiesa was gaining the upper hand, by going for a guillotine choke, Luque executed a stunning reversal with a tight D’Arce choke, making Chiesa tap in no time.
The win brought up Vicente Luque’s fourth straight victory, while snapping Chiesa’s four-fight win streak. Following his win, Luque made a respectful callout of welterweight champ Kamaru Usman, saying that he would meet him soon inside the Octagon. Usman was quick to react to Luque’s callout while also acknowledging his stunning submission win.
