Former UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira admitted that at the end of the third round of the fight against Arman Tsarukyan he was celebrating victory.
Recall that the Brazilian caught the Armenian in a tight D'Arce choke hold, but the latter was saved by the final gong.
"There were 30 seconds left. The choke was very tight. Plus, I like that hold. I thought he was passed out, so I even showed my tongue. I was getting excited already. But that's part of fighting, too. My win wasn't meant to be. I threw a guillotine in the first round. I don't miss that position. But Arman is very resilient," - quotes Oliveira MMA Fighting.
