Julija Stoliarenko dislocates the arm of Jessica-Rose Clark to open up UFC 276
Julija Stoliarenko opened up tonight’s UFC 276 fight card from Las Vegas, Nevada in a big way.
It took just 42 seconds for Stoliarenko to manipulate the arm of her opponent, Jessica-Rose Clark in the first fight on the early-prelims from the T-Mobile Arena, forcing the fight to end. While there is no official medical diagnosis available as of press time, it did appear as if Clark’s was dislocated as a result of the first-round armbar.
The victory, was the second-fastest submission in the women’s bantamweight division’s history behind Ronda Rousey’s 14-second win over Cat Zingano in 2015.
