Chas Skelly has become the newest star of the UFC's Featherweight division.
The unranked 31-year-old recorded the quickest submission in the history of the division, with a 19-second win over Maximo Blanco. Skelly has won more than half of his professional fights by submission and now has an 16-2 record. The win came off the back of his only loss in the UFC when he lost to Darren Elkins in March.
The Texas fighter also earned $50,000 as a bonus for the submission, which was the eighth-quickest in the history of the company.
