Charles Oliveira scored his 17th career submission inside the Octagon in the UFC Rio headliner on Saturday night.
Oliveira came out swinging early, connecting with a one-two, prompting Gamrot to shoot for a takedown, dragging ‘Do Bronx’ to the mat with ease.
With his back to the mat, Oliveira immediately went to work fishing for submissions, nearly locking in an omopata, prompting Gamrot to scramble and give up his back.
Oliveira attempted to lock in a rear-naked choke, but Gamrot defended throughout the remainder of the first round.
In the second round, Oliveira scored his own takedown, putting Gamrot on the mat, quickly taking Gamrot’s back, and this time, Gamrot would not escape.
Unable to cinch in an RNC, Oliveira locked his arm over Gamrot’s chin and cranked, forcing the Pole to tap out.
Oliveira finished the fight with a submission.
Author summary: Oliveira wins with submission.
