Don't be fooled by records in MMA. It's all about quality of competition.
Pat Schilling learned that tonight in Nashville. The 5-0 fighter got steamrolled by Daniel Pineda. Pineda, a seven-loss fighter, stormed across the cage and walked through Schilling to post a victory in his UFC debut in just 97 seconds.
Pineda (16-7, 1-0 UFC) got things rolling with a short left with 4:09 left in the round. He grabbed Schilling and scored an easy takedown. Just six seconds later, he mounted the stunned Schilling. Pineda unloaded with some big shots to Schilling's forehead, who turned to give his back with 3:53 left. Eventually Schilling stood up with Pineda on his back. That only made it easier to slap on the rear-naked. Referee Mario Yamasaki saved Schilling a few seconds after it went back down to the ground.
Denis brutalizes Sandoval in 22-second win
Who could pen a better script for a UFC debut, than what Nick Denis producd on the UFC on FX 1 undercard?
The Canadian let his hands go in the opening seconds then backed it up with four vicious standing elbows to drop Joseph Sandoval and post a win in just 22 seconds in the opener of the prelims on FUEL TV.
Denis (11-2, 1-0 UFC) showed good boxing early and landed a big right just 12 seconds in. When he got a hold of Sandoval's in a thai clinch, the smaller American was in big trouble. Sandoval has made two trips to the Octagon and dropped both fights in a combined 99 seconds.
Camoes won't let debutants go 3-for-3, Brazilian subs Hayden
Tommy Hayden was holding his own for a while, but he was stepping up to another level tonight in Fabricio Camoes.
Camoes withstood an early onslaught from the UFC rookie. Hayden got a little too grapple-happy, had his back taken and had to tap to a nasty rear-naked choke at the 4:03 mark of the first round in fight No. 3 of the night.
Camoes hit the decks three times early in the fight. Two times he was on his knees and another on his back, but Hayden couldn't settle him. Hayden got on top again with 2:35 left, but Camoes eventually scrambled to score a sweep and take top control. After a few seconds, he stood after launched himself back on top landing a hammerfist. Camoes eventually got Hayden's back where he began to work the finishing choke. With just over a minute left in the round, Hayden was shot. The choke was tight. It appeared he actually tapped twice before referee Josh Rosenthal honored a third tap to end the fight.
Hayden, 25, dropped the first fight of career after an 8-0 start. Camoes () evened his UFC mark at 1-1-1.
