Nikolay has gained considerable muscle. This is a 85.3 kilos catchweight. Apparently, someone missed weight. I assume it was Nikolay

Aleksakin won round 4 imo, he even knocked down Askren. Both guys tired at the end. However, seemed that Aleksakin was the fresher man in the last 2 rounds. Inactivity for Askren showed in this fight. Askren wins a unanimous decision

Watching Ben grapple is a treat ... his body lock to takedown to side control is like Maia's guard pass, looks so simple, so predictable but is inevitable and unstoppable. they can do it to whom ever they choose whenevr they choose to.

@Rhino_Rocks I would say he dominated the 1st rd. controlled the second and the third, got hit with some good shots in the third, but finished strong. Needed help from Shimada at the last part of the fourth to let him get back to his feet as Nikolay was looking to soccer kick him after the knockdown, he even made some gesture to the referee. Looked cautious at the beginning of the fifth until he got a takedown to ride the round out. Not the best showing to say the least. The time off between fight could have played a factor for Askren to be fair. He most likely understimated his opponent.

sounds like ben gassed with using to much grappling and Nikolay is a real contender

@Rhino_Rocks Nikolay had a big strengh advantage and missed weight. He was really big for this fight, even bigger than his One debut where he made weight at 169. Makes you wonder if he was on something. Looked ready for Askren.


The @ONEFCMMA headliner between Nikolay Aleksakhin and @Benaskren will be a non title match because the Russian's weight was too high.

Askren looked like trash when he wasn't holding the other dude down. After this one it's pretty ******* clear that he would lose alot of fights in the UFC. The Santos fight showed it too...

Anyways... here's a little victory dance

Rhino_Rocks But this fight  was two welterweight fighters fighting at 185. The russian last fight before this one, he made weight at 169. Yet missed today at 185. He was on the gimmick most likely. One doesn´t test.

@Kinsalsa  Thanks i just watched the fight.  from work shhhh...... that guy is roided up as sean shrek who would ever trade with that.  the knock down was good timing in the 4th. People can say what they want but funky would give anybody in the UFC a run for their money.  i wish he would have used a little more power bc i think he wouldve finished him
