I am shocked the judges got it right. I shouldn't have to feel this way

Well, I'm glad I got the pick right. But losing that might have actually taught Green a lesson. That was a disgrace considering how much of a prolific finisher Green has been prior to this.

Okay, if Green did have a separated rib then I can give him a bit of a pass. But I still think that fight IQ display was a little whack.

He managed to do a bit of damage in the final minute. I was about to lose my mind if he let a one legged fighter just lay on him to close it out.

Predicting Gutierrez by calf kicks, slick kickboxing and good enough TD defense.

Haha, I loved how everyone was worried Dana was coming for streamers, and then he told the story about what he meant and he was like "we were watching one uploader, but he was on to us and laid low". Dana if that's how you think you're gonna stop piracy, you're overmatched mate.

@TWJake

If he wants us to pay for it then he should give us a better card. I'll gladly pay for good PPV's but not this.

This one is going to be a great fight, both quite underrated. I got Gutierrez for this, but Ewell could very much win.

I think this fight is the fight I’m most exited for on this card tbh, this should be a banger. Odds should be closer
