Leonardo Santos submitting Georges St Pierre with flying armbar

Should also mention that Jake Shields submitted Leo Santos later in that same event.

Edit: Here it is.

Damn as soon as I saw the thread and TS, I was coming in to say exactly this! Lol

Great submission. Santos is a great talent and championship material.

Santos is still undefeated in his 6 UFC fights but still fighting guys outside top 10, while the guy he KOed a few fights ago is fighting for the interim belt. That´s how deep LW division is.

It's not the UFC's fault the guy takes a lot of time off. After the Kevin Lee fight he's only taken 1 fight. Lee has went on a 5 fight win streak.

Actually looking at Lee's record, he´s 9-2 in the ufc (not bad at all) and he´s riding a 5 fight winning streak. So, if Barboza is still recovering from surgery and Khabib is unavailable, giving Lee the TS wasn´t that bad of a choice as I originally thought.

It's not a bad record, but sadly not really comparable to Khabib. Ferguson vs Khabib was the fight to make, I think most of us can agree on that.
But whatever, Kevin vs Ferg would've happened sometime, anyway.
