I finally saw this fight today and was shocked and rather pissed off at the ending. It is a fight between Matt Baker (trains with the Nogs now) and Marcus Vinicius in Battlefield Fight League based in BC I believe. It happened Dec 6, 2011.

If you go to about 2:30 and watch from there you will see the elbows that I am talking about. Matt Baker has Marcus Vinicius' back and is throwing elbows to the back and drops a 12-6 elbow into what appears to be the spine and one to the base of the head. I can't believe he wasn't warned for those. That fight should have been a NC. It's clear that the guy who got choked out was hugely affected by those illegal shots.

Am I totally wrong when I think those are highly illegal elbows?

I hope this link works, it's working for me and I don't know how to embed stuff so you smart folks may have to do that for me.
