Highly-touted wrestling ace, Bo Nickal turns in his third straight Octagon win tonight on the main card opener of UFC 300, submitting fellow middleweight, Cody Brundage with a second round rear-naked choke win — forced to the second frame for the first time in his Octagon tenure.

Nickal, a decorated amateur wrestling talent, turned in two back-to-back victories over both Jaime Pickett and a July knockout win over Val Woodburn last year in his first year with the promotion, earned his slot on the roster with a pair of wins on Dana White’s Contender Series.

However, turning in another wrestling-heavy approach in the second round, Nickal took Brundage down once more at the fence, and after failing in an attempt to set up an arm-triangle submission attempt, the former eventually locked up a rear-naked choke win — scoring his third consecutive Octagon win to boot.
