"The unbeaten but unheralded Semerzier, in just his fourth professional bout, locked up a tight triangle from the bottom on the Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt and became the first man to ever finish or submit the Nova Uniao standout. The end came 2:14 into round one. A Pedro Sauer protégé, Semerzier has stopped each of his first four opponents, three of them by submission."

WEC 43 Bonuses: Semerzier Capitalizes on Fabiano Upset.
Wagnney is one of my favorite fighters, easily my favorite guy in the WEC. I'm sure he'll bounce back and maybe even be better for the loss in the long run. A few more fights before a title shot wouldn't be a bad thing.
And congratulations to Mackens for the submission. Chalk up another one for the power of the faixa roxa!
