the second round has beautiful scrambles and really grappling exchange by both fighters, but the O'Connor wrestling advantage is really noticeable and the leg kicks also opened the way for him to top positions.

A bum who clearly has the wrestling advantage and gas tank and can't finish a guy who has been gassed since the middle of Rd 2. No damage. Nothing.

Good performance from O’Connor dominated this one…

I picked Mokhonoana based on him being listed as a prospect by Bellator and I don't know anything about O'Connor, but his wrestling and grappling looks amazing tonight easily comparable to Brett Johns or Jack Shore peak performance level. Let's be Real, I didn't know anything about Josh O'Connor before today but I'm a fan now!
