UFC On Fox 2 Results: Charles Oliveira Submits Eric Wisely With A Calf Slicer

Photo

Charles Oliveira defeats Eric Wisely by Submission. The stoppage came at 1:43 in the first round.

Eric Wisely landed a push kick the fight round. His attempt at a kick to the body was unsuccessful with Oliveria catching the kick and tossing Wisely to the ground. Charles Oliveira landed punches from the top before looking to for a leg lock. Wisely defended well but left his leg in and Oliveira rolled with Wisely's leg locked in. In what can only be called a highly unlikely submission, Wisely was forced to tap as his leg was twisted the wrong way. The official call is that it was a calf slicer. Wild set up.

This was Charles Oliveira's featherweight debut. After a successful UFC debut he was 0-2 (1) in his last three fights at lightweight. Despite the weight cut, he looked to be the same size he was at 155 pounds. Eric Wisely entered the fight as a prospect from the mid-West. He was making his UFC debut.

You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.

Lucky submission, really?

Look at the way Oliveira pulled back on Wisely’s body to increase the pressure at the end there. I don’t train BJJ, but it sure seemed deliberate to me.

Yeah, good call

The last replay they did, as Oliveira was leaving the cage after the post-fight interview, makes it really clear.

Guys...I write these as the fight is going. Essentially a past tense play by play.

It looked like a lucky submission. I have edited the post though to reflect that it was highly unlikely instead.

he was trying to set up a reverse STF

but Wisely tapped out before it was completed.

Fair enough

I couldn’t tell how he did it until I rewound and watched the reply a whole bunch of times

no such thing as a lucky submission

that takes a ton of anticipation to set up and lots of technique to finish.

an awesome finish! I didn’t hear anything if FOX will put prelim fights on if time allows but this would be worth bumping up.

I also prefer calling it a Knee Buster

As Calf Slicer doesn’t quite highlight the potential severity of the move.
