Holy. *******. ****.

What ground skill. From both of them, but Topuria looking like a whole other kind of level on the ground.

Impressive start from Topuria. Props to Zalal for fighting through those sub attacks.

Great first round for Topuria. His Greco and sub game is legit. Didn’t trust his competition level.

20-18 Topuria. Zalal looks like a completely different fighter, bad gas and showing horrible headmovement and footwork. Also, engaging in the takedown against someone who just took YOU down and dominated you on the ground... not a good look.

Yup, apparently most people on here didn't know who Topuria is...

Did Zalal's corner really tell him to go for a TD in the 2nd? Damn...

Yeah, Topuria looked good, but Zalal also looked way off tonight. He usually has a great gas tank and solid TD defence. But pulling guillotines and spamming lazy flying knees? Bad fight IQ tonight from Zalal.

Zalal made a lot of bad offensive decisions, when he wasn't getting taken down at will be was contributing to the grappling engagements. He still has a lot to work on

Topuria is good man, I knew it when he beat Goncalves at Brave. Zalal is so young though, he'll be back no doubt

Zalal spent the whole second round trying for a takedown that wasn't there. His defense was great, but all he did was fight submissions. Never got anything going of his own.
