b Monday Mund said he's going to get at

those legs early and often

these guys are such big lightweights

both have missed weight once in their

careers how about Turner coming in 54

and a half this week turner said that he

needs to be close against Baja look at

this game of inches bahamundes nearly

connected flush there

[Applause]

nice combination by Turner punctuated

with a kick to the body

jaylen Turner winds up on top in this

exchange take your time

he went to elbow and bad there good job

by Baja Mund getting to full guard

watch your hands guys watch your hands

take your time you're winning

[Applause]

matt Royo chiefing the corner of Jaylen

Turner wanting his athlete to take his

time

yeah this would be an awesome

opportunity for him to soften Bahamundes

up get some ground and pound off

bahamundes does a good job of framing

with those legs when he's on the ground

but he's chosen to go back to a

defensive full guard and gets that gets

that left leg in between two of them

all right let's check in with Mike

Valley and the champ this coach's camp

brought to you by Quervo the tequila

that invented tequila

nacho both hands

good elbows from bottom for Bob Mund

mundes is lighting him up from the

bottom lock to the cage

use your hips to walk backwards Nacho

get your back to the cage

already lost some point yeah and Bob

Mund is getting good instruction not

necessarily using it the coach need all

down

setting up a triangle setting up a

triangle he's got submission no doubt

those long legs that's getting tight

that's getting tight

that's getting tight he's got it

ignasio Mund submits the Terra in round

one welcome to the top 15 a Mundes i was

wondering why he went to his back there

now I know for as good as that striking

is got crackling too

that was a slick triangle

nachos got submissions as well he found

one tonight maybe not the fight the fans

expected but Ignasio Bundes has arrived

he recognized this was getting to be

trouble and he couldn't escape look at

this when he starts to switch

starts to throw the triangle look right

here there's still a chance to get out

jaylen can't that's the grip of

Bahamundes his ability to keep him in

tight now it's too late but there was a

moment there for Jaylen Turner to submit

or get out but he couldn't well

Bahamundas did a great job of grabbing a

hold of that left leg as well and

trapping it keeping him from moving

extending that leg beautiful submission

and Bala my man no need to walk over to

the fence right when you got submissions

like that aala with some outstanding

ground strikes

and then he gets the submission

ignasio Baundz had a conversation with

Shawn Shelby right after beating Manuel

Torres at Sphere he asked for Jaylen

Turner

and in fact he got Jaylen Turner and he

got them out of there and you know we

sat down with Jaylen Turner and this

felt like a real crossroads fight for

him because took him a long time to get

himself back to this point to compete

and this did not go swimming but even

like mentally right for him to get back

in here mentally he said just in terms

of his mental health it was hard to

build his way back so it wasn't just

physical it was mental and now he got

beat so let's see what happened

ladies and gentlemen referee Mark Smith

has called a stop to this contest at 2

minutes 29 seconds in the very first

round declaring the winner by submission

due to a trial joke Ignosio

[Applause]

if you ever need a training

I appreciate you bro thank you brother

thank you brother whoa i'm a I'm a

grappler now you're You're everything

i'm a grappler now you're all of it i

guess you can do it all my friend what a

spectacular victory ignasio you you are

known for your fantastic striking but

you showed tonight that you have a very

very well-rounded game a beautiful

triangle for the finish you know I I I

knew I was going to submit him i told in

the interviews I'm going to submit on

the first round and I did you know h

sometimes you're not in your best day

but you got to make that 60% and 100 and

that's what I did today so your game

plan at least what you thought coming in

you were going to sit in why did you

think that i don't know i just feel it i

just feel it i had a weird dream one day

again and uh I I dream I submit him and

it was the same shorts so I say "Okay I

guess it's him." Well hard work makes

dreams come true my friend let's take a

look at it on the big screen so you were

on your back you locked your legs around

the shoulders here you knew you had him

at this point you know a lot of people

think I don't got him because I got long

legs but I'm strong so I can lift my

hips and lock that triangle and that's

what I did whenever I saw his face it

was off well it was beautiful ignasio

you are one of the rising stars of this

lightweight division and with a

beautiful performance like this tonight

give us your thoughts on the type of

fighter you would like to face next

with my team but whatever you get me

closer to the bell i need to go back to

the gym start training my my my

teammates got a really nice fight coming

up so thank God I'm good i'm going to go

back Monday to train fantastic sir

congratulations on excellent performance

ignasio Bahamundes ladies and gentlemen

that post interview was brought to you

by Trip the official water of UFC what a

moment for Ignasio Bahamundes and he may

have picked up there jaylen Turner did

say to Laala that he is done it looks as

though Jaylen Turner is going to retire

he is taking the gloves off directly

across the octagon from me seems like

maybe his coaches trying to talk him out

of it but tonight belongs to Ignasio

Baandez and the fights are only going to

get bigger for that Chilean he was a

national Chilean kickboxing champion at

14

moved to the United States at 16 aligned

with Mike Valley when he was 17 and now

10 years later at 27 the MMA world is

his oyster in this UFC lightweight

division
