MMA Fighter Was So Disoriented After Vicious Knockout That He Put The REFEREE In A Chokehold

Ryse Brink made quick work of Joseph Nehm inside the cage at the MMA event KnockOut Promotions KOP 54 in Grand Rapids, MI, ending the fight in 12 seconds after a swift kick to the head and a barrage of heavy, pointed punches. Nehm was so disoriented after the ambush that he unknowingly thought the referee was his opponent. As Brink climbed atop the cage to rile up the crowd, Nehm was putting the innocent referee in a chokehold, before his own team rushed onto the mat to tear him away. I’m no doctor, but I’d be willing to surmise that Joseph Nehm is suffering from concussion symptoms as I write this. Stay out the light, bud.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
