A regional MMA event in Brazil on Saturday featured an extraordinary finish that fans may never see again.

At FMS: Fight Night 2 in Curitiba on Saturday, Yabna Ferreira N'Tchala and Luiz Claudio Bezerra Filho met in a preliminary lightweight bout which ended less than half a round when Filho effectively tapped himself out. The Curitiba native was scrambling hard for a heel hook when he got his legs entangled between N'Tchala's.
