I hope we didn't jinx it right at the end by saying Peruvian fighters have been solid this season.

Lewis was open for an RNC several times in this fight… dominant no finish…

I love Llontop's way of close range striking and his straight jabs. I really hope he gets signed, idk how much success he can find in the UFC but he's only 24. I hope that's not an excuse for Dana not to sign him though, he's very talented and I can see him beating some of the lightweights on the UFC roster

Yeah Llontop  was trying but he was too gassed for it to have any effect. The tomato will complain about it regardless.

Not impressed Mallik kept giving up and James went for illegal or missed strikes never could put anything together
