I was actually just talking about tapping out to chokes as opposed to going to sleep. Tapping out to arm locks is a different thing altogether.

No doubt they do. I sleep a lot myself. Usually six hours every night.

Seriously though, haven't watched UFC for awhile now, mainly because my DVD store doesn't seem to be too keen on getting more in. So recently (say last year or two) how many times has a fighter gone to sleep in the Octagon? More importantly, how come they don't all go to sleep as opposed to tapping out? And even more importantly, does getting choked out a lot do any long term damage (as per getting KOed a lot)?
