Nikita Krylov STOCKHOLM – Nikita Krylov threw only a handful of punches and attempted just two chokes, but he made the most of all of them in a first-round submission victory over Stanislav Nedkov . After dropping Nedkov with a stiff right early on, Krylov (18-4 MMA, 3-2 UFC) transitioned from an anaconda choke to a guillotine choke, forcing Nedkov (12-2 MMA, 1-2 UFC) to tap out at 1:24 of Round 1. The light heavyweight bout was part of the preliminary card of today’s UFC on FOX 14 event at Tele2 Arena in Stockholm. It aired on FOX Sports 1 following additional prelims on UFC Fight Pass and ahead a main card on FOX. Nedkov’s aggression was on display right away, as he pressed forward behind a series of blistering overhand rights, trying to find the chin of his taller opponent. Krylov stayed composed, however, and launched a straight counter right of his own that took Nedkov’s legs out from under him and put him in desperation mode as he pressed for a takedown
