Nastula was not a MMA fighter and that was his second fight. Kharitonov wasn't one dimensional back then and the fight was really close until he decided to act like an imbecile. I mean, he literally allowed a guy like AE to hit him in the jaw. Yeah... brilliant idea Sergei!
170kg 375lbs
Nastula was an expert on the ground and Aleks and Nastula fought mostly on the ground in that fight. Nastula was a natural at MMA that's why he looked fantastic when being thrown to the wolves..
Futhermore at that time Aleks was also somewhat inexperienced as an MMA fighter. Submitting Nastula was an amazing feat I have no idea why you would disregard it at something trivial..
Aleks got lucky in the Sergei fight but he also took Sergey's best shots and traded a lot with him..He also had the power to take advantage of Sergei's mistake IMO it was a clean win because taunting is part of the fight game and Sergei has always been arrogant and knew what he was doing
Also Aleks has been submited only by legendary grapplers and KO'd only by K-1 level Strikers (Cro Cop, Graham, Magomedov etc)so when people say he has a weak chin or bad ground game I honestly have no idea where they are coming from
