Even though he lost, I thought Catone looked pretty solid in his last bout. Both him and Munoz fought what was IMO fight of the night next to Randy/Nog.
Safe to say the loser will be making a new reusme with “UFC veteran” under “past experience”.
Someday I would like to see an entire free per view event wherein every fight, except maybe for the main event, is a “winner keeps his job” type affair…
