Yeah, mine are going ass too, thanks Pat! I really didn't think Jordan had the power to put him away, but Barry was saying something about his left eye getting hurt.

Roy Nelson's highlight real is a series of huge overhand rights. So funny

And 4 minutes into the fight he is totally gassed...

This entire card has been pretty shitty, and I don't have high hopes for this fight.

EDIT: Wait, what? What happened to all main events being 5 rounds?

It got promoted to main event, it wasn't the original one, so they were training for a 3, they usually don't make them fight another 2 in that case.

I didn't watch this card but reading about it it seems like the worst card in a long time.

Mazagatti may be terrible, but I didn't think Fitch was in all that much danger. I've never heard of anyone suffering long-term throat damage from a guillotine. It sucks ass in the moment, but a sore trachea for a few days or a pulled muscle is about the worst you get. The only serious risks I'm aware of are spinal injuries from falling on your head. (And yes, I train. I've given and received my share of guillotines of various flavors.)

Mario Sperry separated his vertebrae escaping a guillotine once.

Except, the other fighter voluntarily let Fitch go. If he had waited for Mazagatti to jump in, he could have held the choke much, much longer, potentially doing serious and permanent damage. The fighters safety is the #1 priority of the referees and Mazagatti failed hard. He should have been in there, feeling Fitch's limbs for response or trying to get some sort of cue from him.
