    Reyes was laughably comfortable in there. Had him badly hurt and could have pushed for the finish.

    Reyes reluctant to take any chances. Doesn't wanna get Volkov'd!

    I'm worried Volkov may have suffered serious damage after that.

    He took one brutal shot on the floor after he'd lost his mouth-guard, which could have done him serious damage.

    Thankfully the ref did his job well, moved in quickly and saved him from any more punishment.


    Hopefully, he'll be alright.

    Strange 2nd round, Reyes very cautious compared to the 1st. Not sure if it's cardio or something else but he's allowed OSP get back into this fight

    He hit the floor just as the.horn went. Can you be saved by the bell in the last round?

    Another ref **** up... How was that let go to the judges?

    Almost as blatant a knock out as when Anderson Silva ended Bispings life only to be told because Bispings s unconsciousness was met a few secondater by the bell it wasn't over.

    I thought Mirigliotta (sp?) definitely jumped in and waved his arms before the horn sounded.

    I like Reyes’ striking game a lot. High volume in the first round, great variety of strikes and his footwork and head movement is nice too, slipped a few big shots from OSP. In such a thin division, he could be a future champ.

    And yes that has to be ruled a KO. Dan was sleeping there.

    If Ricky Simon can win a TKO, then that's a KO!

    Wasn't a knock out. The fighter doesn't decide if its a knockout or not, reyes walking away means nothing. The fight was over when the bell rang, ovince got up when asked by ref.

    Yeah Reyes is a serious character, still raw but massively talented. Future champ imo.
    I was sure I heard the bell just as Saint Preux hit the canvas.
