BEST SUBMISSION?

Recommended Posts

Guest deinly1

I saw UFC1, I remember Royce winning it, correct me if I'm wrong- but didn't he win with some type of triangle choke?

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueria v.s. Mark Coleman at PRIDE 16.

 

Looking back now, we shoulda knew who would have won this fight, but at the time, there was LOTS of doubt on if Nog could beat Coleman, since Coleman was still on a damn roll. The fight really brought the Triangle Choke to the forefront, as Nog caught Coleman with it, Coleman tried his general powering out of the move...and ended up caught in an Triangle Choke Armbar, forcing the submission.

 

I was still pretty new to MMA, but I remember reading previews for the show, and NO ONE predicted that, and through that one fight it pretty much sealed the career of Coleman, and started Nogueria's massive reign at top.

 

...Plus, it was the first PRIDE show I ever bought.

Not o single out any match but the amount of history and meaning that is being put into the rear naked choke by the UFC middleweights is getting to be pretty awesome. If St. Pierre wins via RNC, we have something special.

Matt Hughes armbar out of now where on George St. Pierre with 1 second left in the round at UFC 50. I was there live and the crowd pop was insane.

 

St. Pierre on top working the kimura, 4...3....Hughes gains control....2.....armbar.....1....tapout....huge pop.
