I agree, 9 finshes in a row now. Haters gonna hate

Oleinik just did what only Big Nog has been able to do against Mirko. Congrats, Alexei! Amazing fight.

Cro Cop fought a stupid fight and paid for it against someone who has so many wins by sumbission ... was horrible to watch

Cro Cop isn´t bad, Oleinik is that good right now.

I didnt call Cro Cop bad bro, Oleinik is legit so why would Cro Cop pull guard for a fucking arm in guillotine

I know you didn´t, I´m just saying Oleinik took the fight where he wanted because he´s in the shape of his life.

Cro Cop pulling guard was stupid , he had a decent sprawl and could have went for an uppercut or a knee.. Since when does Cro Cop pull guard ? Crocop took the fight where his opponent wanted and not vice versa

Oleinik is a hot name right now, a lot of opportunities for him!

M1 vs the Sergei/kudin winner or vs the garner/Damian winner

Ksw vs the champ

Wsof vs Russow, vs rolles grapplers dream

Legend vs aleks

I don't agree my friend, mirko got schooled by the boa that simple

He is a healthy number one contender IMO

Since when does beating Cro cop make you a hot name? Not since 2007 has he been a good win on anyone's resume.

He has 9 wins in a row all by sub, not only mirko, to answer your smart comment

Mirko got schooled but he was fighting like he was fighting a total clueless fighter .... going for triangles and arm ins and avoiding his bread and butter... he stood up once and had a couple of good sprawls, but for what to attempt submissions ?

Oleniuk is on a tear right now.

*Note to cage Zombie's out there.

That fight may have gone the distance I Mirko was able to use the perforated steel wall to hold himself up from being taken down. Mirko tried to use the ropes to hold himself up and eventually slinging an arm over top in and effort to be held up by the ropes. Herb Dean would have none of that. Mirko also spralled out to the end of the ring but there was no cage there to stop him and to use an obstacle to stop Oleniulk's TD's.

This fight is a very good example of how much the cage thwarts good TD attempts. The game is a lot different with out that weapon and affects the outcomes of fights substantially. The ring???... Not so much. Big advantage for a very good wrestler like Cain and others who use the cage as a weapon to pin opponents against... you bet!

I agree, it was stupid to play the sub game vs the boa
