YES PAUL FELDER! I don't have to hear Dom Cruz repeat the same line 5x hoping for someone to say "great point, Dom"!

Do the cutmen sign up to have their full name broadcast like that? Seems weird.

Doesn't seem any more weird than anyone else having their name broadcast.

Wtf was that? Moret just fell over on his own but the camera wasn't showing the legs so I can't quite tell what happened

Also I hope this next round is more of this last minute and less of the first 9.

if you'd like to say what the gently caress 2 or 3 times in a row, with increasingly high pitch, read this wiki excerpt to find out how it happened!

Born and raised Tuscumbia, Missouri, White was critically injured as a toddler when he mistakenly drank gasoline placed in a milk jug near other jugs that were filled with lemonade. The gasoline accident burned his vocal cords, damaged his hearing and contributed to a minor speech impediment.

On the slowmo none of that looks like a clear tap, more just reaching to grab something.

Hey maybe you're jumping a little too far based on a tattoo that kinda looks like it might be a coverup of something else, unless there's some outside info i'm unaware of.

Crochet Boss is the more gassed of the two, but I can't understand why he gave up on the jab after cracking the dude with three good ones in the middle of the round.
