Homefield decision is rough. Definitely had the knockdown in rd2 and overall strong in Rd 3 for Makdessi. No split just means the kiwis are crooked

So... Radtke might be in some issues for that post-fight octagon interview. What he said is apparently a criminal offense up there.

Makdessi is probably the most underrated 20+ ufc fight veteran tbh, it’s probably because he never really got that big win but he’s a solid fighter and always has been

 Makdessi gave Mullarkey too much respect. Didn't want to hit him when he was down.

I scored edged each round for Jamie and I’ll stand on it, but like I said possibly 29-28 which ended up being correct. And no, not an Aussie.

There's a pretty big gap between Trevor Peek and Jack Jenkins, Chepe will need to show new levels in order to make this competitive.

@Voodoowizzy 
He couldn't have won round 2, the knockdown was by far the biggest moment. But I can see an argument for him winning 1 or 3.

I went with Chepe only cause his war with Peek was epic. I know Jenkins is a dog so I don’t have my hopes up

In my opinion, Makdessi wins the second round with the knockdown and the 3rd round was clear for John. But I don't complain about the result: Mullarkey dominated the first half of the fight and was clearly ahead in the second before the knockdown. Mullarkey vs. Hasqparat would be a good matchmaking for the start of 2024.
