Ramiz Brahimaj didn’t let odds get in the way of a major injury a couple of years ago, and he didn’t let them get in the way of pulling off a huge victory over Billy Ray Goff during the main card of UFC Vegas 107.
The fight started slow before Brahimaj secured an early takedown, quickly scrambling and getting to Goff’s back. Goff escaped and managed to land a clinch elbow during the round. Brahimaj went from the clinch into a guillotine choke attempt — before transitioning it to a ninja choke attempt. The choke became tight quickly, and he managed to choke out Goff for the victory.
