Great fight; if Tumenov can keep it standing, it's his to lose.

Tough matchup for Gunnar. I think tumenov keeps it standing and uses his reach and size advantage to give Gunnar his second straight loss

Can anyone write anything about Tumenov's ground game? How level of sambo/BJJ does he represent?

I know that on ground Nelson > Tumenov but what is the difference?

I think it comes down to the takedown defense and cardio of Tumenov.

Gunni looked amazing! First of all, this is the most in shape I've seen him, ever. I believe the next half of Tumenov's career will show just how amazing this win is.

His cardio was finally on point, he was smart (didn't try to constantly one-shot his way to a KO and go for TD's only after knockdown or out of desperation), his striking was on point, he mixed in combinations and kept distance with side kicks and his TDs we just masterful.

The fact that he's a frickin' genius on the mat is no surprise, but the rest was something I was beginning to worry we were not going to see out of him. He finally looks like he actually likes the sport and is putting in the extra effort.

I knew Nelson would win. His only losses were Rick Story and Demian Maia. Agaisnt anything but elite fighters with loads of experience he can conquer.

I am not sure if many people knew that Gunnar has a karate background too.
