Stephen Thompson suffered a second-round submission loss to Shavkat Rakhmonov at UFC 296 on Saturday. Thompson did well to remain standing throughout the opening round, hand-fighting to keep Rakhmonov from getting in deep on takedown attempts. Rakhmonov applied the same tactic more successfully in round two, taking Thompson down and eventually securing a rear naked choke with four seconds left on the clock. In 9:56 of action, Thompson landed 16 significant strikes. With the loss, Thompson fell to 17-7-1 overall and 12-7-1 in the UFC.--Alen Kurbasic - RotoBaller
