DUBLIN – A mirror opposite of training partner Conor McGregor, Gunnar Nelson was cold, calculated and, ultimately, a straight killer against Zak Cummings on Saturday.
Nelson (13-0-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) choked out Cummings (17-4 MMA, 2-1 UFC) in the second round. Like “Iceman” in “Top Gun,” Nelson seemed to wear Cummings down with his slow-paced style – right until he pounced.
The bout was the co-main event of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 46 event at The O2 in Dublin. It streamed on UFC Fight Pass.
Check out the highlights above along with Nelson’s post-fight interview with Dan Hardy inside the octagon.
