Here’s how Bryan Caraway ’s Wikipedia page describes his latest win over Erik Perez , which came this past Saturday at UFC Fight Night 42: “After controlling the majority of the bout with his grappling, Caraway won the fight via rear-naked choke submission in the second round. Preceeding the finish, the in ring referee missed Caraway’s brief fish-hook of Perez, a move deemed illegal by the unified rules of MMA.” According to an article on one site, it was a “questionable illegal maneuver he used to assist in choking out his opponent.” Never mind that the fishhook happened midway through the first round of the FOX Sports 1-televised main-card bout, while the choke came in the second. It’s this kind of thing that’s been bothering Robert Follis, Caraway’s coach at Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas. He doesn’t deny that the fishhook happened, or that it was illegal
