    Captain America with rear naked choke in Rd 2...

    Also, Chael Sonnen apparently dominated Nate Marquardt for a three rd decision, and Matt Serra beat Frank Trigg via ref stoppage due to punches.

    anybody see the card? curious if the Sonnen/Marquardt fight was as one sided as the report i read from a buddy.

    Better than I thought it was going to be

    Marquardt got owned by Sonnen
    Trigg had hair (which was quite amusing)
    Paolo Thiago got a sweet choke of Mike Swick
    Coleman refused to tap (like a man) and was choked out. Respect to Mark Coleman
    Phil Davis was very impressive !!!
    Rolles Gracie was a disgrace to the Gracie name with his lack of cardio

    Sonnen-Marquardt was interesting in a few ways.

    Sonnen DOMINATED the fight. However, for a moment in the first round and then late in the 3rd, Marquardt nearly choked him out. Really close. Sonnen admitted after the fight that he was close to going out in the third.

    Also, Nate hit Chael with an elbow from the bottom in the second round and Chael bled all over the place. If you looked at the two guys after the fight, Nate was unblemished and Chael looked like he'd been run over by a truck. But Sonnen absolutely dominated the fight. He was on top of Nate the entire fight and pounded him. Nate just couldn't do anything with him until the last 90 seconds or so.

    Serra KO'd Trigg. No surprises there. Trigg woke up fast enough to protest while the ref was on top of him.

    Oh, and after the Randy fight, Joe Rogan was interviewing Mark Coleman and all of the sudden Coleman just stops talking for a minute. Silence. Then he walks away and starts yelling and pointing into the crowd. Tito Ortiz is apparently talking **** at Coleman. Rogan tries to keep him in check. "Don't even worry about that stuff". But Coleman grabs the mic and starts cussing Tito out.

    "You punk *****. Tito Ortiz you f****** c***. Anytime you wanna go....."
    Crowd erupts.

    EDIT: Yeah, and big ups to Coleman for not tapping. Herb Dean was in there quick and got it just as he was going out. Good refereeing there.

    Paulo Thiago's finish was sick. He caught him with a punch to put him down, then followed it up with that nasty choke. Swick went out fast.

    You may of seen this but this (as the title says) is a Brutal Guillotine Choke by Dan Miller

    Unfortunately Miller had no answer for Maia last night. (Let's stay on topic. :))

    Looks like Thiago's choke of Swick.

    I watched the fights today...and to be honest, I don't think Coleman wants any part of Tito. I dislike Tito and feel he is overrated, but Coleman shouldn't be anywhere near the Octagon anymore.

    He looked like a bulked up Ben Kingsley in there...and that is NOT a compliment. He was slow, winded and a sitting duck with Randy. Tito hits harder and is faster than Randy at this point. Marc wouldn't last one round.

    And that is sad because growing up, The Hammer was pretty much my favorite fighter.

    The Marquardt fight was a lot of fun. Seeing some color always helps amp the fight up. But seeing in spill out of his head while being choked was a way cool visual that I am sure UFC will use in promo packages for years to come.
