Dennis Siver chokes out Andre Winner in the First Round
Posted on November 13, 2010, 04:07 PM by Anton GurevichLocal hero Dennis Siver made the fans at the König Pilsener Arena in Oberhausen, Germany proud, by knocking down and then submitting Andre Winner via a Rear Naked Choke at the co-main event attraction of the night.
Siver and Winner set up a very fast pace to the fight, exchanging blows in the middle of the Octagon. Andre Winner was unable to utilize his reach advantage, missing hard left hooks that sent him directly to the canvas. At first, Siver looked to finish the fight via strikes, but the veteran kickboxer decided to go for a Rear Naked Choke submission, quickly getting control over Andre Winner's back. The Englishman managed to survive, but not for too long, as Siver continued to apply pressure and forced the TUF 9 Finalist to tap out.
Siver is now on a two-fight winning streak in the UFC, holding an overall MMA record of 17-7. Charles Oliveira could be a great opponent for Siver, as the winner would surely advance in the UFC Lightweight ranks.

That was sick, Siver is prolly the happiest man on the planet chocking out his opponent in front of his home crowd
Best fight of the night, in my opinion.
i think so too, shit to be honest i was falling asleep till this fight came on. am just happy this card was free
i am glad for siver. he got his win.
oliviera is already got an opponent in jim miller, and tbh it hasnt been that long since he lost to pearson.... i think the winner from tyson griffin vs lentz would make sense or heck maybe even sean sherk just for the fact it would be an exicting fight....
jesus how bad are then english fighters from team rough house, all them fighters dan hardy, ross person, Nick Osipczak, Andre Winner have lost their last 2 fights, ross only one that lost only his last fight, these are good fighters except nick that is, that are rotting away their careers in that camp they need to get the f-ck out of their
