I'll be watching this tonight along with RFA: Smith vs Jardine. One of the best weekends for Non-UFC fights in some time. We have WOSF, RFA, Bellator, Titan and BAMMA. Good weekend for fight fans

Canadian Tapology brethren ... am I correct that you can continue watching the WSOF online stream when it switches to the main card usually?

I thought they used to do that. 

It appears I don't get NBC Sports in Toronto.

@skelli , sometimes it's continued after they switch sometimes it doesn't you never know with WSOF .You'll have to wait and see what they do tonight .

Also it plays on the Fight Network Channel here in Canada at 10 PM ET if you happen to have that . i always watch the main card on there  . that channel is my baby for mma .

Ya I checked and I don't get TFN here. Hopefully they'll continue the stream online. Do you usually have to switch to a main card stream or would it just continue on the prelim stream?

Madrid coming out with a clinch grappling attack surprisingly, trying to do his best Ben Askren impression against Fletcher. Madrid eventually gets his back and taps him with a very tight RNC.

Surprisingly fun 1st round with lots of action.

Lots of footwork from both, exchanging lots of kicks
Grappling initiated by Steinke but Miola had a very, very tight guillotine, but Steinke gets out
More close exchanges on the feet

Very close round, could really go to either guy
10-9 Miola for me based off the guillotine being veryyyyyy tight.
