UFC Fight Night 69′s Arnold Allen: I should’ve held choke until ref stopped fight

BAD MMA News — Sun, 21 Jun 2015 14:27:35 +0000

Arnold Allen BERLIN – Everything was so rushed for Arnold Allen ahead of his UFC debut that he can probably be excused for being in a hurry when his fight was over, too. Allen stepped in for Mike Wilkinson on less than a week’s notice to face Alan Omer at UFC Fight Night 69 on Saturday in Berlin. Ten fights into his career, including six under the Cage Warriors banner, the Brit with one loss had a shot at the big time – in less-than-ideal circumstances. Allen needed to make sure he could be on weight and head to Germany from England quickly after accepting the fight with Omer. When things weren’t going his way on the preliminary card through the first 10 minutes, it probably wasn’t entirely unexpected. But then Allen (10-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) pulled a rabbit out of his hat
