After making waves in his previous octagon appearance with a vicious head kick knockout of Nasrat Haqparast, Australia’s Salkilld (11-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) reminded everyone that his ground game is serious, too, when he took Mullarkey (18-9 MMA, 6-7 UFC) down early, moved to the back and forced a tap due to what was announced as a rear-naked choke, but looked like a neck crack.
The opening bout of the main card ended at the 3:02 mark of Round 1 inside Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney.
Check out a replay of a finish (via X):
“Sometimes it ends nice and simple in the first round,” Salkilld said in his post-fight interview with Daniel Cormier. “I come into these fights expecting everything. We’re staying active and we’re getting that top 15 opponent next. We don’t care who it is.”
