They said what?! Pros react to Nikita Krylov’s submission win over Ovince Saint Preux at UFC 236

Nikita Krylov got it done in the rematch. Five years after being tapped out by Ovince Saint Preux, the Ukrainian athlete was able to pay it back when he finished his opponent with a rear-naked choke in the second-round of their bout at UFC 236, in Atlanta, Georgia. On Twitter, pro fighters reacted to the fight.

Krylov needs to separate and go back to strikes, not try to wrestle/grapple with OSP. He had a couple chances to disengage and hasn't as of yet, but finally does. #ufcatlanta
