Well, I am not a fan of Kit Cope, so I’m glad to see that he got subbed. I’m also glad to see that Vinny got another win. His facebook reports that he could be fighting again in ~3 weeks, I’ll try to find out where and when.
Not a Kit Cope fan, but I am surprised that he lost…
Dollar and Kope on the same fighting surface, how did the world not explode due to extreme amounts of dou…… I shouldn’t continue with that thought process…
Vinny is trying to stay busy at this MMA thing huh, interesting I wonder if he still hates getting punched in the face, but his ground work is great… good stuff… Way to go “Bang” nice…
Cope is now 2-5 in his MMA career and you’re surprised that he lost?
Oh, FYI, the Jitz coach from Team Wand called out Dollar after the fight.
Wow, and I just found out Cope tested positive for Roids after his loss to Rob McCullough.
