Mackens

 

In one of the biggest upsets in MMA this year, Mackens Semerzier defeated rising WEC star and former IFL featherweight champion Wagnney Fabiano with a triangle choke with three minutes and forty six seconds remaining during their bout at WEC 43 in San Antonio, Texas. Menace, took the fight on only two weeks notice, but bested Fabiano, a third-degree black belt in Brazilian Ju-Jitsu and ranked 11th in the world as a featherweight, at his own game.  When asked about whether he would've preferred to keep the fight standing Semerzier replied, Definitely. In every fight you'd rather be on the top than the bottom. I definitely did not want to be on the bottom. Initially (when Fabiano took him down) I went into auto-pilot(wec.com).  The purple belt, under instruction from Frank Cucci and Pedro Sauer, locked in the triangle when Fabiano rose to his feet, but left his head down giving Semerzier the opportunity he needed to seal the victory.  Congratulations to Mackens and best of luck as he looks to take the WEC by storm.
