Ovince Saint Preux scores his third Von Flue choke win in the UFC, this time against Yushin Okami

After four years fighting in various organizations, MMA veteran Yushin Okami returned to the UFC as the late replacement for Shogun Rua. Unfortunately for him, his Octagon comeback was ended within three minutes when he was choked out by Ovince Saint Preux.

What was the high point of the fight?

The entire fight was a grappling match between the two fighters. Okami immediately shot in for a single leg takedown as soon as the fight commenced, and as it was stuffed by Saint Preux, he immediately transitioned into half guard. He had his good looks when he had OSP elevated off the mat, as he seemed to look for a sweep, but he instead continued to play from bottom position.
