It was not the finish he expected, but Tom Aspinall still managed to put away seasoned veteran Andrei Arlovski at UFC Vegas 19. After hurting the ‘Pitbull’ in the first round with a flurry of strikes, the Brit could not finish the fight via TKO, but was not fazed. In the second, following a precise takedown, Aspinall quickly got a hold of Andrei’s neck and secured the win via rear-naked choke. On Twitter, professional fighters enjoyed the finish.
