Brendan Allen turned some heads Saturday when he took advantage of his impromptu main event opportunity UFC Fight Night 220.
After his fight with Andre Muniz was promoted to the headlining spot after Nikita Krylov vs. Ryan Spann was canceled, Allen (21-5 MMA, 9-2 UFC) not only delivered a fourth straight win, but he became the first to submit BJJ standout Muniz (23-5 MMA, 5-1 UFC) with a rear-naked choke in the third round of the middleweight bout at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
Following his impressive win, Allen called out four potential names for his next fight: Sean Strickland, Chris Curtis, Jack Hermansson and Dricus Du Plessis.
