Ronda Rousey brushed aside another top contender last night, eliciting a tap from Cat Zingano in just 14 seconds. Rousey's lightning-fast submission equaled the record for the quickest UFC armbar, set by Joe "Ghetto Man" Charles over 20 years ago at UFC 4.

Rousey joins Charles, Royce Gracie, Fabiano Iha, Dustin Hazelett, Jeremy Horn, Frank Mir and Jim Miller in the group of fighters who have won two UFC fights by armbar in less than five minutes.

Charles, Horn and former welterweight champion Matt Hughes are the only fighters who have both won and lost UFC fights by armbar in the first round.
