Austin Bashi came into Dana White’s Contender Series 70 with a tremendous amount of hype, and he may have exited with even more.

In front of the UFC brass, Bashi (13-0) manhandled short notice replacement Dorian Ramos (8-3) en route to a rear-naked choke submission at the 3:15 mark of Round 2 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

Bashi, 22, entered the fight as a Lights Out Championship and Shamrock FC champion. He’d turned down multiple UFC opportunities in the past in order to ensure his readiness for the big show, he and his team explained to MMA Junkie before the fight.

Ramos, 30, was a short notice replacement for Sean O’Malley protege Tommy McMillian, who pulled out of the fight days prior due to injury. UFC CEO Dana White was heard consoling Ramos after the fight, saying matchmaker Sean Shelby would “take care of” him.
