Rory MacDonald pulled off an old-school trick when he couldn’t get the rear-naked choke against Curtis Millender, using a diversion to get the tapout at the 3:38 mark of the first round in the PFL 2 headliner.
When Millendar fought MacDonald’s hands, trying to stay alive after giving up a takedown, MacDonald gave up one of his hooks and used it for heel strikes to his opponent’s thigh.
Seeing an opportunity to escape, Millender began to scramble. But that’s when MacDonald seized the neck and secured the submission for a six-point score in the headliner of Season 3’s second PFL event at Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, N.
