Dustin Stoltzfus

The first round was competitive and close, with Stoltzfus working his jab, closing distance into a body lock and landing a spinning elbow along the fence without being able to take the fight down. The second turned on his hands rather than his grappling. Stoltzfus stunned Abdul-Malik with right hands on the feet and backed him to the cage, and once he had him hurt he brought the fight to the mat, passed through a guillotine attempt and finished with the rear-naked choke at 4:25. The upset took one of the night’s $100,000 performance bonuses.
