Roderick Strong vs. Ru Feng on 205 Live

Strong and Feng displayed their chain wrestling ability early on in the contest, where the latter gained the upper hand. He followed it up with a massive slam. However, Strong rolled out of the ring to create some separation and capitalized on it.

He delivered a few stiff strikes and continued to punish Feng with some stiff knee strikes and chops. A submission attempt was countered by Feng, who got in a bit of offense, but the champion used his quickness to land a jumping knee for the three count.

Just. Like. That.
