Kind of a shot you don't really train to defend. Most of the time when guys catch a kick and go for the takedown. I don't think their expecting a straight punch right down the pipe like that. Awesome punch!

This Van Steenis kid is good
 I kinda wish I stuck with my 1st choice pick. But I couldn't help but think Salter is the type of guy to hand a young prospect a submission loss

I'm not familiar with Van Steenis. But it looks like Salter has his hands full. Salter is pretty tough but he's been submitted a few times. Van Steenis might be able to pull this off.

I like van Steenis. He's a tough kid with bigtime upside. But Salter is strange. He doesn't look good at all.... Till it hits the ground. Then his nastiness comes out. He's won like 8 of his last 9, ****, 16 of 20. Finishing ALL WINS. I couldn't get over the idea that Salter goes thru hell, and still comes back to win.

@Brandon it has nothing to do with stupidity, there's just not much you can do if you don't have the defensive wrestling chops to deal with a good offensive wrestler.
