Surging light heavyweight contender Misha Cirkunov looked impressive once again with a dominant performance against UFC newcomer Ion Cutelaba at UFC Fight Night “MacDonald vs. Thompson.”
Cirkunov smacked his foe around on the feet with powerful punches but he couldn’t put him away with his hands. Cirkunov opted to change things up in the third, however, and quickly latched on a textbook arm-triangle choke forcing the tap at 1:22 of the stanza.
