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)?
I will respond even though it was a TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE pun and you should feel bad about yourself.

I don't have the statistics on the fights this year in any event, but the information could be gathered I'm sure. There have been some famous fights in the past of fighters being put completely to sleep including:

Royce Gracie vs Ron Van Clief: Royce Gracie vs Ron van Clief UFC 4 Revenge of the Warriors Video - Fights MMA Video Details

Jeremy Horn vs Chuck Liddell 1: Chuck Liddell Vs. Jeremy Horn #1 UFC 19 Video | MMA Root

Matt Hughes vs Dennis Hallman 1: Dailymotion - EC 21 Matt Hughes vs Dennis Hallman - a Sports & Extreme video
