Hey guys, I'm gonna be a broken record tonight...

In between fights when you get a chance, go upvote and boost the fight clips as our bot brings them over. All helps to get seen in the fediverse and get more people over here. Thanks.

I'm starting to think you're making these fights last so little somehow.

Herb must have dirt on Dana and/or Ratner at this point to continue to get events.

Du Plessis always has had weird movement but it looks even more weird tonight?

Leg injury?
