UFC Fight Night 170 Results: Charles Oliveira Scores Another Submission

Johnny Walker Vs. Nikita Krylov

Round 1: We’ve had a string of decisions to begin the event, but with two knockout artists in the light heavyweight division, that could change. Walker with a front-kick right off the bat and tries to land some kind of flying knee-jab combination. Krylov has enough of that and clinches. The big men are throwing and rattle the cage. Krylov trying for the takedown and he gets it, dragging him down with him.

After a few minutes on the ground, Krylov rocks Walker who is wobbled. Walker, though, throws a spinning back-fist literally out of nowhere. Krylov lands with his second takedown of the round.
