That one landed! Sneaky uppercut lands for Curtis. Kopylov with the volume, but Curtis is getting closer and closer

You would think the volume had bigger disparity, but Curtis is right there with him in significant strikes.

Kopylov is tired! Curtis won the back end of that round, he was coming on strong. Close round.. probably SLIGHTLY lean Kopylov, but it was close! 1-0 Kopylov

Kopylov with some crispy straight 1,2s.. Curtis eating that sht and walking through it. Curtis is grinding him down

Kopylov is leaking now from his eye, Kopylov also running out of gas.. it’s early round 2! Not looking good for Kopylov

Curtis has absolutely taken over the momentum of this fight. Kopylov needed that break from kicking Curtis in the 🥜

That’s a good comparison.. Curtis’ style does remind me of Strickland’s style. Kopylov with another foul, desperation for a gas break. Point should be taken.. Kopylov using this for a much needed break

Kopylov using the fouls to keep him in it, he needed those breaks.. should have been penalized for having 2 fouls in a round. That definitely plays a factor in a fight that showed him exhausted. After the second foul he clearly had more success. I still think Curtis did more that round.. 1-1

I think Kooylov still would have won on the scorecards, he did great rd3, especially with the ending, but you don’t rob that man of finishing the fight when he’s not in danger

That first groin strike was not Kopylov's fault. Curtis redirected the shot below the belt on accident. No excuse for the eye poke, though

Only prediction in this one is knockout. Alhassan has big power but his chin has been cracked. Almeida I haven’t seen enough of him, but he looks significantly bigger.

Alhassan lands the big one, drops Almeida. Almeida on bottom trying to jiu jitsu his way up, and he does get back up. Alhassan winning and then GOES TO SLEEP!! One shot counter and a highlight knockout

That was…🤔 FUN! That had the energy we love from MMA. Unpredictable wild swings in momentum. I was about to post Alhassan 1-0 and then 💥
