Watch Youssef Zalal make quick work of Josh Emmett

Featherweight contender Youssef Zalal only needed 98 seconds to finish former title challenger Josh Emmett when the two fought at UFC 320 last October.

Zalal put on a ground clinic. After taking Emmett down early in the opening round, Zalal took Emmett's back and looks to lock in a rear-naked choke. He transitioned to a triangle choke before finishing the fight with an armbar. Take a look back at the submission win.

Zalal headlines Saturday's UFC Vegas 116 fight card against former bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling.
