In a great come from behind victory Ricky Simon the former LFA champion out of the Gracie Barra Portland Gym secured the guillotine choke from the mounted position. when Merab was considered unconscious the referee awarded Simon the TKO victory at 5:00 minutes of the third round. What a wild ending to UFC fight Night 128 undercard!
