So Yohan fought a guy everyone thought he could knock out, he shoots a half-ass takedown, gets put in a headlock and just crumples? WTH was that??

Good for patterson though, he has got skill

I'm happy for Patterson. I felt bad for him in his brutal KO loss in his last fight.

I knew Lainesse was janky on the feet and horrible everywhere else, but that wasn't even JV wrestling **** right here.

Patterson got a head and arm, just snapped him down like he was teaching his son a wrestling move on a drilling partner. 

That was actually insane to see that skill level in the UFC😂

Although the bookie is not resolving the fight for some reason lol. Still listed as pending. I guess their stream is REALLY delayed.
