UFC Results: First Round Armbar Kicks Off Tonight’s Action In Halifax


The UFC returns to the Great White North for a special Sunday UFC Fight Night event in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

In the main event, heavyweight prospect Derrick Lewis will fight his toughest opponent to date when he fights longtime contender Travis Browne.

Before the main card starts, the UFC has produced an undercard full of intriguing matchups. First up, on UFC Fight Pass, is a middleweight fight between Gerald Meerschaert and Ryan Janes.

Meershaert started the fight throwing a knee to the body, but Janes absorbed it and became the aggressor. Janes got his opponent up against the cage and took him down. Janes became overzealous and got caught in an armbar to finish the fight.

Official result:

Gerald Meerschaert def. Ryan Janes by submission (1:34 Rd 1)
