Trecean Gore’s two-year layoff from The Ultimate Fighter 29 came to an end on Saturday when he faced Antonio Trocoli at UFC Vegas 100.
In the end, it was worth the wait.
Although Gore was absent due to injury, Rusty seemed to have no problem as he wasted no time in the match and landed a takedown. After making his promotional debut in the summer, Torocoli quickly found his way back to form. Both men remained in the clinch, reversing once or twice before Gore locked in a standing guillotine.
It may have looked awkward, but Gore held the choke tight. Trocoli did not last long and was soon forced to tap, giving Goa a very impressive victory in their long-awaited return.
After all, this victory marked Trecean Gore’s second consecutive guillotine victory, albeit more than two years apart. After the win, Gore told Michael Bisping: I’m glad to be back. We have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. ”
“If you stick your neck out there, we’ll take it home with you. You’ve got to learn to be respectful,” Gore added, pledging to keep raising the bar.
