Islam won
Yair won
Della won
Tafa got a cool KO in an innocuous HW fight

Despite shaky prelims I got everything I wanted for Christmas. The main and co main clearly generated the next title fight (Volk vs Rod). Both fighters in ME left with a ton of dignity.

Lastly I must say I despise Volk but he's making that awfully hard for me. Alex is a goddamn savage of an animal. He had a lot going against him in terms of size and grappling pedigree but he put on an amazing fight and made Islam look beatable. I was very surprised by Islam's striking and Volk's grappling, that was the biggest surprise
 
Also.. Rodriguez vs Emmett was an incredible fight. Yair looked like a champ. His offensive BJJ has looked freakish in his last two fights and he's kept his stand up magic. Amazing kickboxing and submissions
 
Plus I'm not a huge fan of Izzy and Bareman. The chaos in me likes seeing CKA take losses. Hey though Volk is the man. I'm sure his FW legacy will go on
 
Islam won the match.
Alex lost, but after weeks of “it won’t even be competitive and he’ll get ragdolled”, he put in quite a performance and won the hearts even of those who doubted him.
We as fans won as well - one crazy fight (whole card really) that makes you appreciate witnessing the moment.
 
Great night minus a very, very, very questionable main event decision
