Randy ‘Rude Boy’ Brown has just turned in a highlight-reel stoppage, and a rarity to boot. As the featured bout of the UFC 261 prelims, Brown managed to lock up an eye-catching one-armed rear-naked choke win over the Brazilian, Alex ‘Cowboy’ Oliveira.
Picking up three wins in his last four, the Spanish Town native dropped Oliveira with a heavy right hand, with referee, Dan Miragliotta offering the Brazilian a life line and a chance to survive. Giving up his back along the fence corner, Oliveira hand fought with Brown who managed to score one hook, before attempting to choke Oliveira with a single arm.
Locking up a rare one-armed rear-naked choke, Brown eventually pulled Oliveira to the canvas — wrapping up his sixth submission victory from thirteen professional wins.
Below, check out the highlights from Brown’s impressive submission win over Oliveira.

What began as a back and forth striking match quickly changed as Rakhmonov landed some heavy blows backing Oliveira to the just barely missing with a huge knee. From there the two fought for position until Oliveira shot in for a takedown exposing his neck and allowing Rakhmonov to secure the victory.
The prospect from Kazakhstan will look to quickly climb the UFC Welterweight rankings after taking out a veteran in his debut.
Alex Oliveira has offered to step up and face Khamzat Chimaev next. Chimaev has been on a tear ever since debuting for the promotion in July. His most recent outing was an impressive 17-second knockout of Gerald Meerschaert in a middleweight bout last month. Given the nature of his wins, it’s clear to most that […]
Alex Oliveira has offered to step up and face Khamzat Chimaev next.
Chimaev has been on a tear ever since debuting for the promotion in July. His most recent outing was an impressive 17-second knockout of Gerald Meerschaert in a middleweight bout last month.
Given the nature of his wins, it’s clear to most that Chimaev — who has competed at both welterweight and middleweight — is more than ready for a ranked opponent. However, he seems to be aiming too high at the moment as names such as Leon Edwards and Stephen Thompson aren’t interesting in facing him at the moment as he’s unranked.
What better way to further prove you belong with the ranked opponents than fight “Cowboy” Oliveira who has been in and out of the top 15? The Brazilian is certainly ready to compete.
“I’ll take the fight no one else wants,” Oliveira told MMA Junkie. “Chimaev, I’m ready for a fight at welterweight right now. I see you picking and choosing opponents. I’m right here.”
While Oliveira is currently not ranked in the top 15, he is certainly a big name in the division and would undoubtedly be the best opponent Chimaev would have faced.
He also notably holds wins over the likes of Carlos Condit, Max Griffin, Will Brooks, Tim Means and more and is currently on a two-fight winning streak.
“I’m itching to fight Chimaev,” Oliveira added. “If you want to pick and choose opponents, I’ll fight you.”
It remains to be seen if Chimaev would be interested in facing a non-ranked opponent, especially when other ranked opponents have also offered to step up and fight him such as Neil Magny.
However, Chimaev is looking to stay as active as possible and if Oliveira is ready to compete soon, he would certainly be an intriguing litmus test.

Peter Sobotta has called time on his career.
The German welterweight announced his retirement on social media following his unanimous decision defeat to Alex Oliveira on the UFC Fight Island 3 main card last night.
Sobotta was outclassed on the feet and also broke his right arm early on in the fight which likely stemmed from blocking Oliveira’s body kicks. And after acknowledging that he didn’t have what it took to fight at the top any longer, the 33-year-old decided it was time to walk away.
Here is what he had to say (via Google Translate):
“Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to win tonight. I’m also not particularly well. I broke my right arm early in the fight, my face had to be sewn in four places. I’m not looking for excuses. I was the worse fighter tonight. Not ready to grit your teeth and go forward. Too little pressure, too little courage, too few hits. I could not play my greatest strength because several takedown attempts failed. Oliveira deservedly won.
“I have to recognize that my path as an active MMA fighter ends after 17 years. I felt that in the ring today. I really love this sport with all my heart and this decision hurts more than any broken bones and ligaments. But I just don’t have the toughness, robustness and willingness to take risks to fight at the top. It was a damn wild ride and I am infinitely grateful for the emotions and experiences that I was able to experience. Thanks to EVERYONE who accompanied and supported me 
”
Sobotta retires with a 17-7-1 record.
His last win came in May 2017 when he finished Ben Saunders via TKO. He would go on to lose to Leon Edwards in 2018 before suffering his most recent setback against Oliveira.
What do you make of Sobotta retiring?

Round 3: The pair return to striking. The fight is momentarily on the ground but Oliveira wants to keep it on the feet. Oliveira hurts Sobotta with another body kick. Not a lot of action since with lots of feinting and blocked strikes. However, Oliveira leads 41-17 with total strikes and should be on his way to winning.
