Video: Bryce Mitchell beats Matt Sayles with only second ‘Twister’ submission in UFC history

Bryce Mitchell has surely locked up a performance bonus already thanks to a truly rare victory.

On the UFC on ESPN 7 preliminary card, the featherweight was able to tap Matt Sayles out with a “Twister” submission, which has only been accomplished inside the Octagon just once before in the promotion’s history. Mitchell’s finishing move came inside the final minute of the opening round, and Sayles had no idea what to do other than to surrender.

Watch the video below, because what you’re about to witness is something that just doesn’t happen every day in MMA, let alone the UFC.
