Nursulton Ruziboev’s most recent win was straight out of “Rampage” Jackson’s book.
The Uzbekistan native pulled off a wild slam knockout in attempt to get out of a triangle choke at Brave FC 47 in Bahrain. Ruziboev (29-8-2) put Ibrahim Mane out cold in the first round of their 175-pound catchweight bout. It was a spectacular finish.
Ruziboev found himself mounted by Mane and used an underhook on Mane’s left leg to roll him over and end up on top. In the process, he was caught in a triangle choke and used the classic slam to get himself out of danger and pick up a stoppage victory.
The slam was reminiscent of Quinton Jackson’s famous slam of Brazil’s Ricardo Arona at Pride FC Critical Countdown 2004.
Below is Ruziboev’s must-see slam at Brave FC 47:
