Burns avoids upset with late submission of Oliveira

Gilbert Burns snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.

Likely down two rounds on the judge's scorecards to UFC newcomer Alex Oliveira, Burns, sporting a marked-up eye (the result of sheer passivity and Oliveira combinations), sprung to life in the final frame, taking "Cowboy" down almost immediately before putting his world-class BJJ to good use.

After holding Oliveira in an extended omoplata, Burns transitioned to full mount, and from there quickly snatched a fight-ending arm bar at 4:14 of the final round.
