After nearly a decade away from active competition, Ultimate Fighting Championship veteran Oleg Taktarov returned to mixed martial arts at Bodog Fight “Russia vs. USA” in Moscow.

Facing fellow UFC veteran John Marsh, Taktarov finished his opponent with a kneebar in the opening moments of the second round. Known for his prowess on the ground, Taktarov picked up right where he left off as one of the most dominant fighters in the first generation of the UFC.
