Don't discount these massive, old Russian warhorses.

"Well, he feels like an elephant
Shakin' his big grey trunk for the hell of it
He knows that you're dreamin' about being loved by him" ...Spong.

Silly question but how did people think Spong was going to win this fight? I've seen Kharitonov hit leglocks with his own legs without even needing an arm.

We've seen Sergei get knocked out in about a minute, even under a minute by a guy like Ayala. So while possible, yes, it is unlikely.

Sergei wins Via Big Mac mount.

They figured he'd stand and trade and lose on the feet

 

[Buff]

Damn, lots of people picking Sprong, I'm surprised.

Sergei by sub.

 

[aerius]

Last week we got D1 Ngannou, now we got D1 Kharitonov

 

[Dude Incredible]

What were the odds on Spong tapping to strikes? It's not happened. Just wondering, lol.

Sure, I suppose, but he force pushed Spong over. There was basically no resistance at all.

I thought Sergei might get beat up on the feet but expected Spong to have at least some TDD

 

[cooljay1622]

slipping punches from mount. lmao

 

[CleverNameEh]

Yikes, this is gonna be a massacre if spong can't stay upright

Oh, I 100% agree with you. I was just saying it is possible even if it isn't likely to happen.

 

[neandertal]

A kickboxers worst nightmare. Hes done well though, endure.

 

[cooljay1622]

pretty good defense from under mount. dodged a good number of punches.

 

[EndlessCritic]

how the hell did sergei not put him away.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Sergei got tired of mount and purposely moved to side for a sub, lol.

 

[froggyluv]

That TDD by Spong suspect

 

[SamuraiBro]

That’s a 10-8 boi

 

[Dude Incredible]

It's where I first saw Krazyhorse, and actually quite a few fighters, but you know that was some ghetto ass shit.

At least it wasn't WFA with zipties on the cage liner, though it might have been KOTC I saw the dudes burst through the door down the metal stairs because the door wasn't secured well enough.
