I think that was a good stoppage he was just elbowing his arms

That was a fun fight overall there. Good win for Kelley. Costa has some work to do if he wants to be more then a low tier action fighter.

That was pretty much as expected except it was ground and pound instead of the sub.

Bad play from costa initiating the clinch against the taller man. Should have kept it in space. He was winning the striking exchanges comfortably.

Actually changed my pick because of the driving story. Sounded like he was hungry for a win

He was taking a lot of punishment no doubt about it but Costa gave up there. A lot of shots were glancing and he was doing nothing to get himself back in the fight. Good stoppage, bit disappointing from the Zohan. I'll take the semi perfect tho

Kinda seems like its disrespectful to Kelley to even mention Costa's cardio. He dominated from the opening bell.
