Can that win be classified as KO instead even if it was a submission move because Machida didn't tap resulting of him getting knocked out.

Thoughts?
 
My thoughts on the sub:
It happened and I saw it

The hell? You two switch belts?

No, it cannot.
 
That was some great thinking right there! Never looked at it this way..
 
submission + knocked out = subbed out
 
Let's not get bogged down in semantics, let's just call it a "IFUU" (I fucked you up).
 
The sub was novel for Machida. It was the Cody Mackenzie guillotine that uses the palm to close the artery, instead of going under the chin.

I don't know if Jones could win that way again. Machida defended the choke like a standard guillotine, but he seemed unaware of the palm up style of the choke.
