Cards like these make me really thankful for Tapology, most of the fights on this card are of no interest to me but because I've picked them, they grow in significance at least a bit.

@Dontbescaredhomie Ok I'm on Xbox One too, so that makes me feel better. If it keeps up I might have to switch over.

I didn't think Lopez was going to constantly look for takedowns, but often wrestlers lack good fight IQ. In my opinion, when he dropped him round 1 if he would have kept it standing it would have been a different fight. Yahya is fantastic on the mat, and despite what Florian said...Yahya's has and always has had a great guard.

Good debut for Lopez, but he burned himself out early
