The fight lasted about a minute on the feet before Park scored a takedown along the cage. From there, Park would work his way into full mount and bash Tiuliulin with heavy elbows from the top. Tiuliulin flailed while offering little defense at all. Park was eventually able to get a hold of Tiuliulin’s back and quickly sunk in the rear-naked choke finish.

This was his second-straight submission stoppage and another performance based around wrestling and heavy ground-and-pound.
