Most of Fedor fights in CS ended up in TKO stoppage and thats what made him unuque in this sport. I guess Ivanov outsmarted Fedor and beat him technicaly.

Another thing different from MMA is olympic time limit.

But because there aren't many strikers in CS is the reason you don't see many of them on big stage. Apart from Matushenko and Sergei, and maybe Andrei since he started with sambo aswell.
this is true.
