Abus Magomedov needed 1:44 to finish Cam Rowston on the UFC 333 prelims at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi on Saturday. He locked in a guillotine in the first round and held on until Rowston went unconscious in the hold.
It was Magomedov's second straight first-round guillotine win after he submitted Michał Oleksiejczuk in Baku in June, and it takes his record to 30-7-1. Rowston had won seven fights in a row, three of them in the UFC, and drops to 15-4.
