Carlos Alvarez gets Fastest chokeout in MMA history at ONE FNF 101

[EndlessCritic]

Fastest submission is a scam because anyone can tap instantly. Alvarez put his opponent to sleep in about 17 seconds total. Can anyone think of a faster choke out?

Not bad at all. That was a good anaconda.

Apparently, there are some 4 second submission victories around random people, like Dae Gyu Lim vs. Yoon Hyuk Lee.
Haim Gozali and Old School unsung hero Mikhail Ilyukhin both have submission victories at 5 seconds
There's also that classic flying armbar of Rumina Sato.

But were they tapouts or did the person go to sleep?

Nobody has the time to read an entire sentence in your original post, man. That wouldn't leave time for corrections.

Korean guys: good question since its a very shady 2014 fight
Gozali, Sato and Mikhail all were tapouts since they were submission holds (Gozali and Mikhail being ankle locks while Sato the aforemented flying armbar).

You actually made a decent question now: Who holds the fastest submission victory by having the opponent "sleep"?

I actually just thought of another one that's officially recorded as 18 seconds:

The 4th Lee had a good one this weekend too:

In the UFC, that honor goes to Chas Skelly's 19-second anaconda technical submission of Maximo Blanco at UFC Fight Night 94 in 2016.

Hasn't Masakazu Imanari heel hooked the shit out of people's knee's in a few seconds with an immediate Imanari roll a few times?

officially 17s, but I think he went to sleep earlier. Reff shook his hand he was sleeping already

He has
But TS is looking for people who "blacked out". And i can't find no one who "blacked out" earlier than 17 seconds.
We have 5 second tapouts and some 5 second submissions... But they were tapouts

Satos flying armbar is a thing of beauty
