Amosov submits Alvarez in UFC debut, calls out top-10 or Brady-Buckley winner

Yaroslav Amosov made a strong UFC debut by submitting Alvarez, who had never been submitted before, with an arm triangle following a powerful throw. Amosov expressed that he was nervous due to the large crowd but dominated with his grappling control throughout the first round. He acknowledged room for improvement despite the finish and emphasized his well-rounded MMA skills beyond just wrestling. After the victory, Amosov called for a top-10 opponent or potentially the winner of the Brady vs Buckley fight featured on the same card. His performance appears likely to earn him a performance bonus and positions him for a rapid rise in the welterweight rankings.
