Sam Gowland got the better of Geordie Shore rival Marty McKenna in their FAME MMA UK grudge match.
As expected, Gowland's ground game was too good for his co-star and love rival, with the former Love Island star winning by submission in the second round.
Elsewhere, there were wins for the likes of Harvey from So Solid Crew and the YouTuber JMX. Relive the actiom below.

A good start from Gowland! He wrestles McKenna to the ground and looks to take the mount position.
McKenna has turned round and Gowland has his neck!
Can he sink the rear naked choke?
He can! He's done it!
Gowland defeats McKenna via submission (rear naked choke) in the second round.
Some really impressive technique from Sam Gowland.
Gowland: "I'm over the moon. Fair play to Marty, he was a lot stronger than I thought. But I'm better technically, fitter and stronger. And I fucking won!"
Gowland: "When's the next FAME MMA? I'm ready. English or Polish I don't care, I'll fight anybody."
McKenna: "I'm disappointed. I wanted to have a proper fight. But he's been doing the ground stuff. If it was a K1 fight it would have been different. I'll do it again with Sam but I have to focus on the ground game because it wasn't good enough. It was shite. Proper shite. If it was stand and bang it would have been different."
The crowd boo McKenna. He tells them to f*** off.
And that's that! What an extraordinary night of nonsense.
