PRAGUE, Czech Republic – English lightweight Chris Fishgold made it second time lucky inside the octagon with an impressive rear-naked choke finish of Sweden’s Daniel Teymur at UFC on ESPN+ 3 in Prague. Fishgold, the 26-year-old former Cage Warriors champion, couldn’t hide his elation when he chatted with MMAjunkie backstage after his second-round submission win. “I’ve just got my first win in the UFC,” Fishgold exclaimed. “If I died tomorrow I’d be a happy man. I’ve accomplished a dream here.” Despite his smiles of victory, Fishgold (18-2-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) revealed his anxiety heading into the bout very nearly got the better of him at O2 arena.
