Former middleweight champion Chis Weidman snapped a three-fight losing streak on Saturday, defeating eighth ranked Kelvin Gastelum by submission in the UFC on FOX 25 main event.
Weidman kept Gastelum on the outside with the use of front kicks to the body and a significant reach advantage. He mixed up his attack between striking and takedown attempts. Weidman controlled the first round until the final seconds of the frame. Gastelum stepped in with a straight left hand that sent Weidman crashing to the canvas.
