St. Preux garnered a “Performance of the Night” check for his submission of Australian prospect Tyson Pedro in the light heavyweight co-main event. After being dropped and trapped in a guillotine choke early, St. Preux escaped and regathered his bearings. Eventually, OSP moved to top position near the fence after a botched Pedro takedown and grabbed a kimura before transitioning to a straight armbar to earn the tapout at the 2:54 mark of round one.
Elsewhere, Song received the card’s other “Performance of the Night” award for a brutal knockout of Felipe Arantes in a bantamweight affair. Late in the second stanza, Song broke a clinch with a vicious right elbow, sending his opponent toppling to the canvas. From there, three follow-up blows on the ground brought an end to the contest at the 4:59 mark of round two.
Finally, Young and Dy earned “Fight of the Night” honors for their preliminary featherweight scrap. Young was able to turn the tide of an action-packed striking oriented duel in round two, and he finished his bloodied adversary with a standing elbow strike and flurry of punches against the fence 4:40 into the frame.
