Ignacio Campos defeated Wasi Adeshina by rear-naked choke at the 1:45 mark of the first round in the PFL Nigeria main event. The finish wrapped up the event's card.
Ignacio Campos closed out PFL Nigeria in decisive fashion, submitting Wasi Adeshina with a rear-naked choke just one minute and 45 seconds into the first round to claim the main event finish on June 13, 2026.
The stoppage came quickly, with Campos wasting little time in securing the choke and forcing the tap before the opening round had barely gotten underway. Adeshina had no answer for the submission threat, and the referee waved off the contest at the 1:45 mark.
Why it matters
- The finish served as the closing highlight of the PFL Nigeria card, sending the crowd home with a first-round main event stoppage.
- Campos demonstrated an ability to end fights early, finishing his opponent inside two minutes on a high-profile international platform.
- PFL Nigeria represented the promotion's continued push into African markets, and a clean main event finish helps cement the event's impact.
Verified fighter data was unavailable for both competitors at the time of publication, but the result itself stands as a statement performance for Campos on an international stage. A rear-naked choke finish in the main event of any card carries weight, and doing so in under two minutes underlines the efficiency with which he operated on the night. Adeshina will look to regroup after being unable to keep the contest standing or prevent the grappling exchange that ended the fight.
