It's a shame about the weight misses because CJ could be a good gatekeeper. He is tough and will test the endurance and grit of new fighters entering the league.

This figth make me miss the lady. Almabaev is going to climb the ranking with each figth but no body would care. I'm interest to see him rematch Ulanbekov next to see if he really is that good.

CJ has good anti-wrestling and was able to get back up to his feet often but Asu’s takedowns were great. I hope CJ gets his weight under control.
