I'll be tuning it at some point as well. Warrior Wednesday last week was great. Hopefully we get some Insane Island Fights action this week. You can never be upset with some midweek mma. Even AFC gives you a good laugh at least.

Rowe gets the 2nd round submission victory over McKeon to start off the show.

Jacare Souza in Rowe’s corner, that’s got to be big for his confidence. I always like seeing big names help out other guys in the gym.

Wilson would probably fight at WW if he was in shape I imagine

Sounds like Wilson took the fight on 5 days notice per TJ. Props to him for taking fight.

He’s doing what you need to do taking fight on short notice I guess, make it UGLY and close as possible.

Correct decision for Kasanganay but he definitely tired badly in that third round. Would have been interesting if he were facing a in shape/full training camp opponent.

I agree MEERS! Seems Wilson was coming on , or he was WEARING out..  You would think this should be mismatch in this next fight...

@Meers.. I would say that puts this in the INSANE category even if the rest of the fights suck!! The BANANA SPLIT does it
