Jonathan Pearce talked trash, and then he got finished at UFC Vegas 82.
Pearce faced fellow surging featherweight Joanderson Brito at Saturday’s UFC Fight Night event at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas. With “JSP” looking in firm control in the second round, Pearce told Brito to “get up and do something,” which led to the Brazilian standout doing exactly that, and then slapping on a ninja choke to get the tap at 3:54 of Round 2.
Brito then tapped into his inner Derrick Lewis and took off his shorts for his post-victory celebration.
Check out how UFC fighters reacted to the fight, and Brito’s slick submission win.
I don’t think Brito gets past JSP but if he does does he muddaFUK me again?!

If pierce can keep up this grappling pace and not get caught by a hard shot from Brito I think he will wear him out. Brito uses power on everything. If it doesn’t work you fade
