Should be a good fight. I hope it works out for me to make it to this event.
i like dos anjos. He was doing really well against stephens before stephens landed that big shot. He also put a hurtin’ on emerson leg. It was great technique. Kyle bradley’s win over nover was imho an early stoppage. I havent seen much from bradley that would have me giving him any chance in this fight. I’ve got dos anjos by sub or tko in the 2nd round.
Justin you’re by virginia dude?
Yeah, NC. Hence covering the Carolina Crown Saturday. Fairfax is only a ~3.5-4 hour drive.
He put a hurtin on Tyson’s leg to. But Griffin is a tough guy to beat in your second fight in the UFC. Unless your Edgar and you do it your first.
This fight night is shaping up pretty well. Not too excited to see the re-match of Diaz Maynard in the main event, but it should be a good night overall though.
