good test for Mousasi’s TDD development. Jake isn’t a can, even though he’s not a world beater either
Inhale deep, like the words of my breath—I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death

I agree
if Mousasi can’t stop these takedowns…he might as well forget about staying at LHW.

This is actually a decent card
But man, the first fight Mousasi takes after getting clowned by Mo for five rounds is Jake O’Brien? That’s not the best idea I’ve heard of.
