Though disappointing losses this week went down for Harry Greb and Tommy Ryan I'm not disappointed at all in their performances because they went a long way in showing me what my fighters are capable of. These were all high profile matchups to get the season off to a fun start, and that was accomplished as they were all Top notch matchups. Rematches all down the line at some point in the future I'm sure.
