Sigur Gunnars Nelson á Alex Oliveira vakti athygli á samfélagsmöðlum hjá kollegum sínum. Gunnar sigraði Alex Oliveira með hengingu í 2. lotu á UFC 231.
Það var nokkuð um blóð í bardaganum eftir að Oliveira fékk stóran skurð á ennið. Báðir bardagamenn voru útataðir í blóði þegar bardaginn kláraðist. Það vakti mikla athygli á samfélagsmiðlum sem og störf dómarans.
Liðsfélagar og þjálfarar Gunnars voru eðlilega mjög sáttir með sigurinn.

John Kavanagh telur að Gunnar muni berjast um titilinn á næsta ári
With his updated approach to training there’s not many who can do 1 round with him unless they eye gouge, grab fence or elbow back of head. This time next year he’ll be fighting for the belt. I predict dese tings. https://t.co/cJcsXKfDF1

Terrible call for the ref to stop the action as gunni was re attempting a td just to give a warning? #ufc231
