ONE Bantamweight World Champion Bibiano "The Flash" Fernandes retained his title with a first-round submission win over Team Lakay’s Kevin "The Silencer" Belingon in China. Fernandes nullified Belingon’s supposed striking advantage by going straight for the takedown. After passing Belingon’s guard and moving into side control, Fernandes worked an armbar attempt into a Kimura, forcing the tap.
In the Changsha Bantamweight Tournament Final bout, Ma Hao Bin quickly locked in a guillotine choke against the cage to put opponent Bu Huo You Ga to sleep a little over one minute into the first round. Ma wasted no time in looking for the submission, which he used to win in the semi-final bout, squeezing tightly until Bu Huo was out.
