UFC Vegas 6 results: Stewart chokes Pitolo, Dariush stops Holtzman with spinning backfist

The UFC Vegas 6 main card continues on and Darren Stewart just submitted Maki Pitolo with a guillotine in the first round. Both men came to strike, but it was when Pitolo shot in for a takedown that Stewart attacked the neck and found the finish. This gets Stewart back into the win column, and shows a whole new wrinkle in his game. After a tough 0-1-3 beginning with the UFC, Stewart has gone 5-2 since.

Before that, the UFC’s #8 ranked (W) bantamweight, Yana Kunitskaya, took a dominant unanimous decision over the returning Julija Stoliarenko. Kunitskaya put on a clinching clinic out there, fencing her opponent throughout and landing a ton of volume with knees to the body.
