Francis “The Predator” Ngannou and Anthony “Freight Train” Hamilton collided in a Heavyweight bout at UFC Fight Night 102, which took place inside Times Union Center in Albany, N.Y., tonight (Fri., Dec. 9, 2016), airing exclusively on Fight Pass.
In the first round, Ngannou and Hamilton were circling around the Octagon. It was clear that Hamilton was wary of Ngannou’s power, standing at a long distance. Ngannou then switched to orthodox. But, when he threw a low kick, he was taken down shortly thereafter. Ngannou, though, shucked off Hamilton, who then secured a rear body lock. Ngannou began working on a kimura to try to get free and it worked.
