Woke up at 6 AM here in the U.S. to catch Opetaia.

Might need a few cups of coffee to get through this Ogden/Blizzard fight :lol:

1 more fight in between, so I'd say it's about an hour from now.

Spectacular fertility dance going on which presumably means the main event is coming up

Hopefully not because it’s going to clash with a terrific Japanese fight on the other channel ESPN

When the main event comes on, I'm going to lock the office door and pretend I'm doing some training.

If he's a world title contender why only in an 8 rounder?

It's funny how many guys on these undercards will have some variation of the name Liam, Colin, or Dylan in their name :lol:

It's Dylan Collins vs Liam Dylan

It's Colin Dylan vs Liam Collins :lol:

Yeah I was just thinking that. When I heard them say he was ranked #2 in the world I thought of Bivol, Beterbiev or Benavidez, and how I can't imagine him lasting 6 rounds with any of those guys.

I can't even see him winning a round against any of them.

This is the first time I will have seen Jai fight Live. I'm excited to see this one. I expect a walkover performance for him as well, but you never can tell. That's why they fight the fights.

Jai finally kinda switched on there toward the end of Round 2. He was looking almost too calm up to that point. Winning, but possibly gonna leave himself open just by not being set.

Anyway. 2-0 Jai
