Should be another 1st round smashing by Bo. Opponent has a 10 and 5 record.

This is the normal course of opponents.  This guy beat TreSean Gore who was supposed to be his last opponent.   Never been a fan, but I think he goes very far in MMA.

Since I know Dana reads these boards …. I bought the PPV.  Wouldn’t have without Bo being on it.    Good job Dana.

BTW that 2x Olympic Gold Judoka, Kayla Harrison, is a beast.  She is going to wreck the field.

Cody going for some big hits.  Connects a bit.  Nickal says ok, let’s wrestle.  Attempts TD.  Does eventually get it.  Gets back control and eventually gets a leg in.  Cody keeping chin down.  Round ends with Bo in control.  Landed a few elbows.

Round 2 - this is a fight.  Kicks.  Bo decides enough, let’s get to ground.  Works underhook to knee pick I believe.  In control.  Cody turns up towards him.  Bo in full Mount.

trying to set up arm triangle.  Can’t get it.  Working elbows lightly.  No real damage being done.  Starts to punch, Cody bellies down.  Bo has back, body triangle, …. Eventually gets a choke.  Done.

Net net, he was not comfortable in on the feet exchanges.

In interview, Bo says he is going to make all the haters love him.  He is being patient, keep fighting better guys.  Will get to top.
