Yves Edwards looked great on his feet and then surprisingly effective on the ground against Cody McKenzie at the UFC Fight for the Troops 2 on Saturday night, winning a second-round submission victory when he sunk in a rear-naked choke that put McKenzie to sleep.

“It’s always nice to get somebody with their favorite move — choke a choke artist,” Edwards said of McKenzie, who’s best known for winning most of his fights by guillotine choke.
