Gunnar Nelson opened the path to the finish with some nasty ground and pound. After some vicious elbow strikes sliced Alex Oliveira’s wide open and blood began to gush out, ‘Gunni’ was able to sink in a rear-naked choke and secure yet another submission win, at UFC 231. On Twitter, pro fighters enjoyed the fight.

Terrible call for the ref to stop the action as gunni was re attempting a td just to give a warning? #ufc231
