UWC results for ‘Man ‘O’ War:’ Patterson submits Britt quick


Originally posted on MMAmania.com

In the co-featured fight of the night in Fairfax, International Fight League veteran Jamal “The Suit” Patterson took on hard-hitting knockout artist and “The Ultimate Fighter” (TUF) season eight alum Antwain “The Juggernaut” Britt for the right to become UWC light heavyweight champion.

Patterson — a Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt under Renzo Gracie — had previously won all four of his career wins via submission … and last night was no different. After absorbing a couple hard shots from the massive Britt, “The Suit” locked in a fight-ending guillotine choke less than a minute into the fight to become the new 205-pound champ.

He had this to say about the victory:

“I give Antwain a lot of credit. He caught me, but I’m used to getting punched in the face. Today was my day. I got him in a guillotine. That’s my hold. If you leave something out there, I’m going to take it. I’d love to fight in the UFC. Right now, the thing I need to do is get better every day.”
