Jordan Rinaldi Choke Cans Clay Harvison in Legacy Fighting Championship 47 Headliner

Jordan Rinaldi fought like a man who had an appointment to keep.

Rinaldi submitted “The Ultimate Fighter 13” quarterfinalist Clay Harvison with a rear-naked choke in the second round of their Legacy Fighting Championship 47 headliner on Friday at Center Stage in Atlanta. Harvison (13-6) tapped 4:31 into round two, his four-fight winning streak at an end.

This was a rout. Rinaldi (10-4) masked his takedowns with feints, leg kicks and a stiff jab, as he kept the Ultimate Fighting Championship vet off-balance. Harvison grew more and more unsure of himself as the fight progressed.
