Like his previous amateur and professional fights prior, it was a quick night for Bo Nickal in the octagon as he once again won via 1st round finish. Nickal took down UFC veteran Jamie Pickett and submitted him within 3 minutes.

This was to be expected by Nickal, who was a heavy favorite going into the fight, but it’s still good to see him get the job done. There are very, very few MMA fighters who debut in the UFC on the main card of a pay-per-view event so regardless of the fact that Nickal has wrestled in front of similar-sized venues for wrestling, this was a big moment for him.
