McAfee suffers loss in martial arts event
North Pole’s Scott McAfee suffered the first defeat of his professional mixed martial arts career, losing by submission to Marcus Hicks of Dallas during a nationally-televised World Extreme Cagefighting card in Las Vegas on Wednesday night.
Hicks, 5-foot-6 and 155 pounds, got McAfee (5-8, 155) to submit to a guillotine choke at 2 minutes, 13 seconds in the first round of the lightweight bout. The guillotine involves applying pressure in front and above an opponent while holding his neck in the crook of your elbow.
