A bodybuilder renowned for his grotesque arms was submitted by blogger Oleg Mongol within three minutes of his MMA debut at a gym in Abakan, Russia.
Kirill Tereshin, a 23-year-old often nicknamed "Popeye" and "Bazooka Arms," became internet-famous for injecting synthol into his arms which caused them to swell and look out of proportion compared to the rest of his body.
Injecting synthol is a controversial do-it-yourself procedure which some bodybuilders have used to add a temporary implant into the muscle, causing immediate enlargement. It does have drawbacks, however, as it causes muscle deformity .
This has happened to Tereshin, and The Sun reports that Tereshin has launched a fundraiser so he can go to the UK and get a $50,000 treatment for his arms.
"My arms are in a bad state and are reddening," he said.
It is unclear if the cagefight was a charity drive to help fund the trip to a British doctor, but regardless it is one he was conclusively beaten in.
Though he began the fight well, landing a couple of decent punches, Tereshin ended up on his back and was submitted by a fighter 20 years older than him.
Oleg Mongol made him tap because of a forearm to the windpipe.
