Charles Oliveira vs. Arman Tsarukyan

Third Round The pace slowed considerably over the first half of the final round, though Tsarukyan did seem to be getting the best of the exchanges on the feet. He shot for a takedown anyway, and Oliveira didn’t come close to stopping it. Tsarukyan transitioned to Oliveira’s back before the latter scrambled and was able to lock in a triangle-choke attempt in the final seconds. Tsarukyan apparently just barely survived as the fight ended in one of the most suspenseful finishes imaginable.
