Gunnar Nelson, the iconic Icelandic Submission machine has been tearing his way through the UFC‘s Welterweight division. Gunnar Nelson is 5ft11 and fights out of SBG Ireland with Conor Mcgregor and Cathal Pendred. Gunnar is 13-0-1 with the draw coming from his first ever pro MMA fight. In those 13 wins he has 9 by submission 3 by knockout and 1 by decision, giving you a view into why this stoic Icelandic warrior is such a fan favourite. Currently 4-0 in the UFC, 3 of those via submission people are certainly expecting big things from the undefeated grappler. Always known for his emotion during fights, MMA UK thought we would have some fun and have a closer look into ‘Gunni’ and his emotional career.
We’re only having a bit of fun with the very stoic Gunnar, here at MMA UK we are MASSIVE fans of this stonefaced killer in the cage.
See he can smile!
