Former UFC bantamweight Vince Morales has been on an impressive run on the regional scene and has added a rarely-seen submission to his highlight reel. At United Fight League 5, Morales (16-7) faced fellow UFC veteran Hunter Azure (11-4) for the promotion’s bantamweight title at Gila River Resorts & Casino in Chandler, Ariz. In Round 3, Morales wrapped up Azure on the mat, sinking in a modified Peruvian necktie to get the tap at 4:06.
