Okay it’s all uphill from here. Flick doesn’t seem to train a day of striking so I’ll be fading him next time

So Jimmy is better than Mokaev? 😂 just kidding, but Gordon must have tired himself out because he was in more trouble here than against Mokaev early, even after almost finishing on the feet

Wow, Gordon Choke himself hahaha.
Flick lock him in arm-triangle choke and Malcolm move himself to the wrong side let Flick make the full display of a proper choke.
