SACRAMENTO – At long last, Yancy Medeiros got his first UFC win on Saturday, and did so in pretty unique fashion.
Medeiros (10-2 MMA, 1-2 UFC) stopped UFC newcomer Damon Jackson (9-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) with a second-round reverse guillotine choke. Medeiros caught Jackson up against the fence, dropping down expertly to latch onto the neck.
As the fight hit the ground, Medeiros moved around for a bulldog-type choke and finished Jackson in a way seldom seen in the UFC.
Check out the video highlights above of the fight, which took place at UFC 177 at Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento. The main card aired on pay-per-view.
