If there were two things one had to know about Maurice Greene heading into his UFC debut last November, they were 1), he’d fought for Glory, one of the world’s top kickboxing organizations and 2) he was “the villain” of the latest season of The Ultimate Fighter.
Coming out of his debut, a first-round submission win over Cuban Olympic wrestler Michel Batista, one more fact became clear: Greene knew his way around a triangle choke.
Just over two minutes into their contest at The Ultimate Fighter 28 Finale, Greene recovered from a Batista slam and threw up his legs to threaten the submission.
