What a bummer. That card embodied what a Struggle Night time must be: stuffed with motion from fighters with potential and veterans retaining them trustworthy. I cherished the banger between Charles Jourdain and Marcelo Rojo, previous canines Davey Grant and Rani Yaya refusing to go quietly into the night time, and Angela Hill placing within the physique work on Ashley Yoder. If was a grand previous night time till Ya Boi, Erik Anders…

One last thought, there was a second of compassion I caught as Dan Ige and Gavin Tucker awaited the winner’s announcement. Referee Mike Beltran let go of Tucker’s wrist and patted him on the again, keenly conscious of the younger fighter’s emotional state. We thrash the refs and infrequently laud their good calls, however they see as many desires die as they see desires realized. To supply a second of consolation within the seconds earlier than elevating the winner’s hand takes one other type of situational consciousness.
