Wow. I thought Knight would be gassed and too green at this point. Looks like I was wrong.

Why does everyone who fights Knight try to take him down only to get inevitably swept? Keep the fight standing you dummy

Camur has zero fight iq, willingly stays in the clinch till he gets taken down, brought the fight to the ground where he was at a clear disadvantage. Barely threw anything. Frustrating.

Good for Kight. I wasn’t sure how a guy that ripped and  🧨 would do if it went late. Pretty impressed with the cardio and his adversity quite frankly. He was gonna rip that arm off if not for the bell and clearly won the wrestling. He got some polishing but he could have some fun fights down the line.
