UFC 117 Results: Hughes chokes out Almeida

via www.combatlifestyle.com

Matt Hughes isn't done yet.

Hughes choked out Ricardo Almeida with a front headlock on Saturday at UFC 117 in Oakland, Calif., winning his third straight fight and a company record 18th win in the promotion.

Not much going on in the early going. Almeida with a right off a kick catch. Halfway through the round and neither fighter has landed anything significant. Hughes drops Almeida with a left. He grabs Almeida's head in a headlock and he completely chokes him out. Unbelievable.

The time is 3:15.

Hughes says he'll be taking the remainder of the year off and talk to the UFC about a fight early next year.
