UFC Fight Night 80 results: Michael Chiesa submits Jim Miller in the second round by rear-naked choke

Michael Chiesa (13-2) submitted Jim Miller (25-6) for the biggest win of his career at UFC Fight Night 80 earlier tonight (Dec. 11, 2015) at "The Chelsea" at The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Chiesa locked up a rear-naked choke in the second round for the submission victory over the jiu-jitsu black belt to earn his fifth win in the UFC.

The official time came at 2:57 of the second round.

The opening frame was all grappling as Chiesa landed an early takedown on the seven-year UFC veteran and kept MIller in check for a bit until the jiu-jitsu black belt reversed position later in the round.
