UFC free fight: Vicente Luque taps former champion Tyron Woodley with slick submission
Vicente Luque's submission victory over former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley may go down as the biggest win of his career.
Luque entered UFC 260 on the heels of back-to-back stoppage victories, setting up a crossroads fight against Woodley at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. After dropping his title to Kamaru Usman, Woodley's career took a downturn, losing his next two bouts. The meeting with Luque was a do-or-die situation, and "The Silent Assassin" shut the door on Woodley's UFC career with a first-round D'Arce choke.
Luque (22-10-1 MMA, 15-6 UFC) returns to the octagon at UFC 310. He takes on Themba Gorimbo (14-4 MMA, 4-1 UFC), who fills in for the originally scheduled Nick Diaz.
UFC 310 (pay-per-view, ESPN 2, ESPN+) takes at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
