The fight was going down exactly the way I thought it would until Edwards regained mount. Edwards started out with good striking, punishing McKenzie. McKenzie was doing a real good Rani Yahya impression, throwing himself at Edwards and threatening with submissions. I didn't think Cody would get a guillotine, but I thought he would get some choke. Good show for Yves getting the choke himself.
