@free

Fighters should only be fired if they aren't very good, or if they breach their contract.  You shouldn't be able to fire a fightr for being boring.  After all, this is a real sport.

Yeah not always fighters fault bad matchups and cup shots make bad fights.
Fire them for sucking, give them a chance to get finishes.

Martinez looks way bigger...if Saenz takes the same amount of punishment in the next two rounds, he's gonna go down

"You’d be surprised how many people do not know how to dance. But movement, right? I like to say movemint with a m-i-n-t, with a little fresh mint leaf. I’m all about mints, keeping it fresh. I say, keep it fresh."

Martinez starting to really break down that body, going to make it harder for Saenz to get those takedowns
