I'm not sure what happened in this fight. Herman, a promising heavyweight, put the pressure on Choi, using a jumping front kick, but he kept his hands low, allowing Choi to get some shots in. Another factor is that Choi is like Kazuyuki Fujita - he has an iron head. He's one of these guys who is hard to knock out; it's just be better if you choked him out. Choi took a beating at the hands of Soa Paleili in PRIDE, then came back and ended the fight with a choke. Watch it to the end, because one of Choi's buddies does a Lou Thesz press on him, nearly knocking him out. Funny stuff.

Dave "Pee Wee" Herman takes on Choi Mu Bae at Sengoku 7 in Japan later today.

The undefeated Herman continued his rapid ascent up the EliteXC heavyweight ladder, as he needed just 66 seconds to put away the UFC veteran on the ShoXC "Elite Challenger Series" on Friday at the Horseshoe Casino in Hammond, Ind.

The victory -- Herman's 11th in the first round -- moved the 24-year-old Indiana native to 12-0. His stock remains on the rise inside a promotion where elite heavyweights are few and far between.

"I don't really care [who I fight next]," Herman said. "As soon as possible would be nice. The opponent doesn't really matter."
