Kennedy said he did on twitter, funnily enough I think Bisping said he did in the post fight.

To break you hand and still win without a doubt is impressive to me. I don't think Kennedy will hold a belt, but I think he'll be in some big exciting fights. He's definitely higher than a gate keeper right now.

Forgot about it...yes, it is TUF 19.

Dan Spohn (John Glenn HS) and Mike King (Tri-Valley HS) are the two.

Both said this I believe. Noke said he hit Cote with everything he had and he just stared at him lol Cote has a legendary chin

That Spohn knockout was nasty. Was impressed with King too, very gritty.

He was throwing a lot of the kicks that Condit likes as well as the flying knees. I'm assuming a lot of his issues had to do with his layoff. I think we'll see him win his next one rather than start to fall off the map.
What I didn't understand is when he would back Kennedy up against the cage he would land a combination then would back off the the circle of the octagon. That was his chance to win the fight and he basically gave it away. He definitely looked off, I dunno if it was that, the eye, or just the fact that he is getting older. That was the worst Bisping I've seen in quite a while.

Wish they would have had him from Dresden, Zanesville or Columbus instead of Naples, FL. The casual fan from Ohio may not know he is from Ohio. There is also a guy from Archbold and a guy that wrestled at OSU who both made it in. The guy from East Liverpool (Stansbury) would have made it in if not for the unfortunate injury. Nice showing from guys with Ohio ties.

I'll have to look into it. I was looking at the results online, but none of the names jumped out at me as someone I recognized. If from Boston, that'd be part of it; I'm more familiar with names when they're Ohio wrestlers on the squad than I am with the out-of-staters.

It was Walsh. Patrick Walsh to be exact. I dont really remember him from ohio State but he was impressive. The Stansbury kid who tore up his knee actually has fought Spohn losing the first fight but winning the second fight. The second fight was in Bellator.

After looking at the lines I'm going to put $200 on Romero as a slight underdog and that's probably it
