Had to miss the last 4 live due to work, glad I’ll be able to tune in for this

Though I have to miss Pettis vs Horiguchi tonight which I was equally excited about

 

[MMC]

Aldo’s looked good lately but still think Font takes this one. Also have Horiguchi getting his belt back tonight.

 

[Jasper]

Looks like a really good main card.

Pretty great card for a Fight Night. Could do without the Guida fight, but the others are solid to great.

I think this is the first time before one of his fights that I haven't thought to myself "Crazy, but Aldo is still only XX years old." He's finally starting to get up there. Font's up there, too, though. I lean Aldo, but Font's a tough nut to crack.

Fiziev-Riddell could be a Fight Night main event as far as I'm concerned. The winner of this fight is going to be in line for a big fight next.

Brendan Allen is worth keeping an eye on too. His only recent lose was against Strickland and he’s still pretty young.

 

[CDJ]

Good judging to give Knight the win

DC doesn’t know the rules. Striking takes precedence and Knights minimal striking in round 3 was greater than Menifields non-existent striking

 

[Chaels Arms]

That was a fun fight. Nice debut for Weeks on a 4 days notice, he was supposed to be on contender series but had to drop out due to COVID. I had Weeks' winning that but it was close.

 

[Killahpunk]

Them hands by Kape.

 

[CDJ]

That was a firestorm from Kape

 

[Chaels Arms]

That's gotta suck for Pitolo. He looked locked in to start but once that guillotine didn't work he was in trouble.

 

[MMC]

Wow, crazy body shot KO by Curtis

 

[Killahpunk]

Nice comeback by Clay.

 

[chicagoskycam]

What a crazy comeback. I’m surprised it was not stopped in the 1st

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Santos got to be pretty frustrated that wasn't stopped

 

[MMC]

Holy crap

 

[Killahpunk]

Hill dropped him twice.

 

[I am not exposed]

Mullets not working.

 

[Chaels Arms]

This is the one I've been waiting for. Time to see if Fiziev is the real deal.

 

[Chaels Arms]

I know this is a minor detail but has anyone else noticed whenever they show Fiziev's name the square where his nation's flag should be is just a blank placeholder? I've been noticing it everywhere this entire broadcast. Do they not have the graphic for the flag or is it something else?

He's choosing not to fight under a flag due to religious discrimination against his family in his country

Thank you so much, I knew there must have been a deeper reason for that.

 

[chicagoskycam]

Wow ! Nice

I didn’t think he landed it at 1st

 

[MMC]

Fiziev!
