[WATCH] Craig Jones Hits Spectacular Flying Triangle Choke Against UFC’s Phil Rowe

Craig Jones secured a spectacular victory against UFC welterweight Phil Rowe, in a submission grappling match that lasted just over a minute…
With a Flying Triangle Choke!

Jones had previously expressed his eagerness to secure a finish against Rowe, motivated by a “rivalry” against Nicky Rodriguez:

Phil Rowe faced Nicky Rod. He couldn’t finish him and that enticed me to do the match.

Because, I said: “Hey, if Nicky Rod couldn’t finish him and I can finish him, when I finally return to the B-Team I can say – hey, kiss the ring mate, the king of B-team is back.”

And he’s a mid-30s cocaine and Xanax-addicted professional athlete, and he submitted an opponent you couldn’t.

Jones also shared his thoughts on how the unique design of the Pit could influence the match’s outcome:

The shape of the Pit is sick, it’s not fence wrestling.

The pit is at an angle. If I shoot on you, you can’t sprawl – your feet are going to hit the base of the pit.
Maybe you jump your feet up the Pit and you do some young Anthony Pettis sh*t, but how many people are gonna do that?

For me, I think if you shoot a Double, there’s no ability to sprawl, you can just run them into the pit wall.
