    This might be the first in cage death in MMA. However I think Gabi will submit her quickly, unless it's rigged.

    Impressive Kron Gracie.

    He worked really hard to win this fight with great style.

    Brilliant.

    All in all a very entertaining event.

    Couldn't be more impressed with Kron.

    Cro Cop got it done. Had the most elite experience out of everyone but the King Mo fight wasn't easy.

    Amir had a good showing for only having fought professionally since October 2015. Came into the tourney with only 2 bouts under his belt. Still in his Cormier King of the Cage phase.

    It's going to be fun to see if some of these new names like Nasakuwa become big JMMA stars.
