In the second round of their UFC 116 fight, Chris Leben and Yoshihiro Akiyama had an exchange of punches that saw Akiyama connect cleanly to Leben’s chin, and Leben somehow shake off the punches and keep going.
But while Leben was able to continue and ultimately force Akiyama to tap to a triangle choke with 20 seconds remaining in the third round, he says he wasn’t all there mentally after that exchange with Akiyama. In fact, Leben says he couldn’t even remember most of what happened in the aftermath of the fight.
