This is my good friend Seph Smith armbarring the seemingly untappable Eric Schambari (of the former WEC middleweight division) at last weekend's Grapplers Quest West. Get 'em, Seph!

Congrats to your friend. What a great MA background he has!

Eliot Marshall: Bader won. Like I said in the episode, I'm not going to make any excuses. It's my job to be able to deal with when somebody's doing that. It's not his job to change up his tactics.

Luke, this guy breaks a streak

In every fight I’ve seen up till now, when there are two guys in a cage and one of them is wearing a shirt (not a gi, a shirt), the one wearing said shirt gets his ass beat.

I have some soulsearching to do now. One of the fundamental tenets of MMA, broken.

But this is sub grappling.

So the streak stays alive!

Yeah, and when someone wears a shirt in the cage, it’s a) usually a nubs promotion and b) a fat slob fighting. Nothing mysterious about that streak.

See Herb Dean.
