Alex Garcia turned out to have a solid plan for shouting down the highly touted newcomer Muslim Salikhov . It relied on takedowns and grappling superiority, both of which Garcia (15-4 MMA, 5-3 UFC) had in spades, and it paid off when he got Salikhov (12-2 MMA, 0-1 UFC) to the floor and locked up the rear-naked choke to force the tap at the 3:22 mark of Round 2. The welterweight bout opened up the main card of today’s UFC Fight Night 122 event at Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai
