I look back at the career of UFC 6 champ Oleg Taktarov as part of a series called "Before Fedor" on Russian MMA pioneers at MMA Nation.

Oleg
One of my first ever favorite fighters – I even watched YAMMA just to see him in action. I feel like he was one of the first in the UFC to actually implement strategy, and I’m glad he’s getting some love here. Well done.

About to read the article- but just wanted to let everyone know
(in case it’s not mentioned in the article) that he recently boxed Dolph Lundgren.
Just saying, he’s awesome.
Joseph Kuninskovich.
Who’s seen him in Bad Boys? haha
What a tank.

Great article; I hope the next installment is Vovchanchyn (sure I spelled that wrong).
A side note: I wanted to see if I could find this article directly on the MMA Nation website. It took me a good five minutes; extremely unintuitive placement\design.
really?
it’s the top story on the page - the Before Fedor series at least.
I think the “stream” technology is confusing you since the Oleg update is fairly hidden in the stream post.

Well, shit, I look like an idiot. I saw the Fedor photo, and assumed it was the same Snowden piece from yesterday.
I’ll go crawl into a dark corner and hide now.
we even swapped out Fedor pics!

And this is why my career as an editor never took off.
Besides, my mind only distinguishes two Fedor pics: sweater and no-sweater.

I can’t wait for the “ice cold” installment…. those russians are some bad dudes… even though they might nor be as succseful in mma as brazilians or americans…they sure are a lot more scary
