Robinson comes in over trained and gets dropped in the first round. Nice way to overcome it and win, but him and Duran need to get back to the H.O.F. fighters I used to manage. Granted different weight classes, but it shouldn't effect them that much, especially Robinson.

Nice win for Steele. With a close lose to Holman being his only defeat, he's turning out the nice performance early I imagined.
