In this article I just read it said that this is the 2nd time Young has lost and both by submission??? That doesn't sound right, I thought that while she was in the choke, she was saved by the bell and never tapped out and the ref/doc said she couldnt fight ne more cuz her eye swelled shut (which btw I didnt see it swelled SHUT although it WAS pretty swollen) so its a TKO...am I wrong?

It was a TKO. She was saved by the bell and the doctor stopped the fight between rounds due to a cut (I think). Anytime a fight ends by doctor stoppage it's officially scored as a TKO.

She almost lost due to gogoplata. That would've been sick if Gina would've held on to it.

i just couldnt belive NONE of the announcers recgonized the Gogoplata. Im sitting there with one of my buddies like "WOW SHES GOT A GOGOPLATA!!!"

he was very confused (very casual fan) and didnt understand what a gogoplata was, and its a shame i had to resort to explaining how she almost has it finshed. normally i let the announcers explain these finer points.

i thought for sure she had it finished.
