DC showed Lewis’ weakness. He made it look easy and almost took down the monster threat at will. DC fought the fight he wanted, executed his plan. He’s no joke!

LOL, a woman doesn’t need 5 minutes for a groin shot. Their important bits aren’t hanging loosely from an unprotected sack!

DAMMMMN DUDE. Fights not over till the buzzer rings!

I couldn’t even tell you who would have won the decision.

Poor Rodriguez can hardly stand up in victory.

In other news, great win for Cowboy too.

For a no-name card this has been very entertaining.

Hi, Stony, good to hear from you.

Thanks for reminding me about the new Golden Boy MMA event tonight headlined by Tito Ortiz and in his return to the cage after 8 years, Chuck Liddell (48!). I gotta go with Ortiz.

https://www.fite.tv/channel/golden-boy-boxing/

Prelims are free. Main card is $40. I hope there’s a pirate stream or else I won’t be watching!

Also at 6:30 eastern this morning, a UFC fight pass event live from China headlined by a rematch between Francis Ngannou and Curtis “Razor” Blaydes, meanwhile the Reem faces an untested Russian killing machine. I’ll take Blaydes and Ivan Drago.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFC_Fight_Night:_Blaydes_vs._Ngannou_2

You can see the first Ngannou/Blaydes fight here

I’ll also go with Ortiz, Blaydes and the Russian.

I have to think that at 48, the eventual glass jaw that Chuck grew is probably worse than it was when he retired.

But maybe I am wrong.
