Athletic commissions are all dirty anyways, Chiesa, just like Justine Kish, had a good chance of breaking out of that choke. Fucking Mario needs to be banned forever. And the UFC should never hold another event in Oklahoma unless they change some rules. It's not like Kevin Lee is some submission wizard like Maia, so his choke probably wasn't very tight.
He was trying to use the force broBreaking out!? C'mon now...
He wasn't even moving, let alone trying to break out.
His hands were hanging limp, like the flippers of a dead seal.
The only thing that could have saved him was the bell, and I don't think that was going to happen.
Actually a little clever.Not funny.
Did a fighter survive a similarly tight choke literally the fight before this? Yes.
agreed.Every time I've been put to sleep, or even was very close to being put sleep, I had no idea where I was for at least a few seconds. No way anyone that just went out jumps right up and knows what's going on.
Nice AV man !not to beat a dead horse but Chiesa went limp for a second; choke was released, blood went back to his brain and he woke up. He was out.
