Roy Nelson criticizes Werdum's 'not so bright' strategy vs. Miocic: 'He just ran at him'
UFC heavyweight knockout artist Roy Nelson says that wanting to put on a show for 45,000 Brazilian fans was Fabricio Werdum's undoing at last week's UFC 198 main event vs. Stipe Miocic.
We're a week removed from Stipe Miocic's shocking one-punch KO of Fabricio Werdum, which silenced the Brazilian fans and gave Miocic the UFC heavyweight title. Werdum recklessly tried to chase Miocic down during a striking exchange, and Miocic punished him dearly, sending him to only the 2nd knockout loss of his career.
