    This is a nice early card thanks to the Russian TV deal that they originally signed. Cant wait

    Lawler by KO/TKO
    Covington shuts him down over 5 rounds I reckon. Every man and his dog wants to see Lawler knock him out violently, but I just don’t see it happening. Colby has shown he can keep up a good pace, wrestle effectively over 25 minutes and not wither. I’ll say 50-45 Colby.

    Only other fights on this card that interest me are the co-main and Stosic vs. Kennedy. Thank god it isn’t a late one. :)

    Lovely guillotine there. Herb didn't see him tapping and he went to sleep

    How long roughly to the main event? I'm keeping an eye on the boxing but will switch over for that

    Depends on how quick the finishes are but the fight just starting now is the third last one. After this its Miller v Guida and then its Colby v Lawler

    Super finish by Miller there, but yet another sloppy ref performance by Herb Dean. This is not the 1st time that Dean has been off the pace whilst refereeing.

    Dean is going to seriously injure a fighter sooner rather later. Needs to retire quickly as he is constantly at it.

    Jim Miller is always super dangerous once he gets a hold of that neck. Legend. Super down to earth dude.

    Now please, God, let Robbie win.

    Did he miss a tap? Looked like Guida didn't want to tap?

    Miller does that so tight, I think he was asleep before he could tap

    Nice to have a US card on at a reasonable time.

    I really hope Lawlor does the job now. Was disappointed with the Askren showing.

    Colby's work in the clinch and his takedowns are excellent. He let Lawlor off lightly in the last couple of minutes of round 2 by standing up.
