Robert Drysdale's long-awaited MMA debut finally took place Saturday night at Armageddon Fighting Championship 3 in Victoria, British Columbia, and the Brazilian jiu-jitsu wizard gave everyone exactly what they came to see: a first-round submission win.
Drysdale, who entered the bout with a 1-0 amateur record, submitted Bas Huveneers via arm triangle at 1:12 in round 1.
The 2007 Abu Dhabi Combat Club Submission Wrestling World Championship's open division winner
told MMA Fighting last week that he has a four-fight deal with AFC. He expects to fight for the Canadian-based organization one more time this year before finishing his contract in the first half of 2011. He then hopes to sign a deal with either Strikeforce or the UFC.
