There’s still some fight left in “Lil’ Evil.”

Former UFC lightweight champ Jens Pulver (23-14-1) this past Saturday submitted Mike Lindquist with a first-round rear-naked choke at an XFO event in Woodstock, Ill., snapping a six-fight losing streak.

It was Pulver’s first win in over three years and would have retired had he fallen short against the unheralded fighter (6-20), Pulver said Monday on MMAFighting.com’s The MMA Hour.

“Not ripping on Mike or anything,” Pulver told host Ariel Helwani. “But it’s time to start over and if I’m getting caught in the same things, hey, well, ‘You got to go.’ Done.”
