10-9 Edwards. Very low-talent fight.

Young kid, making a few mistakes. But he’s got talent, just don’t get caught and I think he’s got this.

Yeah, I'd be more impressed by that if he wasn't fighting a guy they just picked selling kebabs out the front of the stadium.

Yeah 10-9 Crutch. Pretty clearly too. Not a dominant round, but at the same time landing 8 strikes is still better than landing 2 and checking 1 kick.

Kapel won the first. But that takedown was all too easy.
