“Do Bronx” added to his UFC record for submissions by recording his 13th against David Teymur at UFC Fortaleza, giving him four submission wins in just the past eight months.
But what a ride it was getting to the second-round finish in the lightweight matchup.
Teymur hit Oliveira with a nasty eye poke early in the opening round, leading referee Jerin Valel to issue a rare point deduction. And things only picked up from there, as a fired-up Oliveira came flying out of the timeout — taking another eye poke first — and landing all sorts of shots, from running knees that connected flush to big right hands.
