Great fight, Yashabo was game. Ulka still has some things to work on but his grappling is beast, bright future for both guys

Damn shouldve went with my gut. Knew Woong had good striking but his tdd and overall grappling stunk, both looked much improved tonight. Definitely a guy to watch, only 20, came in last minute and took it to a guy like Miki.
Hyatt wins by UD (30-27, 29-28, 29-27). Solid scrap, Hyatt drilled him repeatedly but Arteaga is tough as hell.
Ogikubo wins by Dec (29-27, 28-28, 29-27) Great fight, Ogikubo demolished him the first 2 rounds but Kasugai ended strong the second half of the 3rd round. No clue how 1 judge had a draw, especially after Kasugai was deducted a point.
Sklavos wins by RNC in Round 1. The fro had a great run but it might be getting time to hang em up.
Ryuichi Miki wins by UD (29-28). ******* awesome fight, definitely FOTN so far.
The REGIIIIIINA! performance was dope hahaha
Kotani wins by UD (29-28). Boring fight, Kotani tried to make it fun but Koyama wanted none of it. Kotani called out Shooto champ Hironaka
Uno wins by UD. He dominated the 1st but gassed after, a lot closer of a fight than it shouldve been
Takaya wins via KTFO in round 1. Quick fight and brutal finish, Takaya needed that badly. Takaya wins event MVP

Not good, but I'll take it considering I was 1-5 after the first six fights ...
