Jason “Mayhem” Miller said before the fight that he wanted to submit the Japanese legend Kazushi Sakuraba at Dream 16. He did just that.
Miller dominated the past-his-prime Sakuraba, beating him up with punches before finishing him with an arm-triangle choke. It was the first time Sakuraba had tapped out since his first MMA fight, in 1996.
“This has been my dream my whole life,” Miller said afterward. “And I say to everyone, believe in yourself because you can live the dream.”
