Amazing Submission!

I was getting a bit scared with Krylov's ground and pound. Craig was kinda blocking the punches with his face. Bold strategy that paid off :lol:

Nikita was probably feeling confident he had the round in his pocket and Craig in deep trouble. Then out of nowhere he was tapping out. Craig's hips are fast/strong as feck

Yeah that ground and pound looked like it was almost curtains for him, and then to go from that to a submission, just wow. Crazy man. I was wondering why he wasn't trying to get up, then boom, game over. :lol:

Tonight again just confirms my belief of how these fight night cards outshine most of the big match ups that have been really poor the past few ones.
 
How are Herbert and Topuria in the same weight division? Herbert looks significantly bigger.
 
Highly rated. The kid is Dagestani so you just know he must be some master grappler.

Let's hope he is the real deal. Makes his debut vs a decent wrestler who is susceptible to submissions.

He opens up the card!! fighting in a few minutes.
Thanks! I read the other day that he didn't learn any wrestling while in Dagestan and he also has an extensive amateur record so isn't short on experience despite his young age, interesting prospect for sure.

Paddy doesn't want any part of Topuria if he's sensible, might actually get his head taken off, though I do find him really annoying so on second thoughts get that fight booked!
 
Haven’t seen Gunnar since before covid. Long layoff

I always enjoyed his style so hoping a good return tonight
 
It’s been a nice handy return for him. He destroys these kind of guys. But once he gets into top 10 territory he just can’t break through
