Callum Bisping has picked up his first stoppage victory as an amateur MMA fighter, moving to 2-0 and making his famous father very proud in the process.
The 24-year-old competed at a Regime Fight League event in Westlake Village, California, facing Brycen MacLeod, who entered the bout with a 2-0 record. Bisping used his wrestling background, having competed at the NCAA Division 2 level at San Francisco State University, to take the fight to the ground quickly. He secured the mount and landed punches until the referee waved it off in the first round.

Michael Bisping took to Instagram on Sunday morning to congratulate his son and thank everyone involved in the corner and at the event.
"So proud of Callum Bisping taking his MMA record to 2-0 with a first round stoppage. Great work son. A huge thank you to the coach for giving up his weekend to corner him. The whole team at The Den Training Center and to RFL MMA SoCal for putting on a great show and being so hospitable to us," Bisping wrote.
Callum's debut victory came by unanimous decision over Chayton Acevedo at Fight Club LA in December, making Saturday's stoppage win his second professional result.
