LOL. Felder with the "if you can avoid Nik Lentz's guillotine, you can avoid anyone's." Lentz holds the record for submission attempts without a completion before catching Will Brooks. #UFCStPetersburg

29-28 Islam, but an excellent fight and debut for Tsarukyan nonetheless. First couple rounds were hard to score tho, could be 30-27.

What a chess match between Islam and Arman. Enjoyed the exchanges and Arman has all the potential in the world, however he lacked experience in this fight. #UFCSaintPetersburg
