Fans Sideline “45 Year Old Stipe Miocic” for Sergei Pavlovich After Another Impressive First-Round Knockout Win: “Give Jon Jones to This Man Please !”

Sergei Pavlovich knocked out Curtis Blaydes in the very first round at UFC Fight Night 222. The highly-anticipated heavyweight match had title fight implications in the eyes of many. Following his win, the Russian Pavlovich also made the claim for a title shot soon.

Many expected Pavlovich to have a tough challenge against the wrestling-heavy Blaydes. However, the Russian powerhouse faced little opposition as he steamrolled ‘Razor’ Blaydes.
