Royval taking a fight at number one overall against 12 on short notice gave us the fight of the year and made a star. Any time someone takes a fight far down the rankings, give them their props. Jon Jones would have made them cancel an event.
Royval landed with quite a lot of significance in round two. And just more. I think it was definitely his round.I'm assuming that judge favored the damage/impact of Van's strikes over Royval's volume, close round.
The camera always stays on their faces long enough to make it awkward.
Props to Aldo for not playing that.

All of themHolyyyyy how many thank Jesus was that in a row?
Lol all religious fighters tonight lol
A tenacious aggressive grappler like Pantoja may cause a lot of problems. Who fuckin knows though.
Actually whoever it was is on my Ignore list which almost certainly means he is in fact evil.Be more tolerant bro, what are you? Evil ?just joking
Royval landed with quite a lot of significance in round two. And just more. I think it was definitely his round.
Van isn't exactly easy to takedown and if he stuffs 2-3 of Pantoja's attempts, he could really stick it to him with the boxing, his body shots are draining and so are failing takedowns. Kai would have a better chance in the boxing department but as much as I love Kai, Josh puts it on him something wickedPantoja takes him down and has an easy night.. Royval should have done it.
No way van survives five rounds underneath Pantoja.I hope Pantoja is not going to fuck around with that kid and will grapplefuck him for 5 rounds to show him levels
This one had me going crazy freshman year
That’s gonna be so sickkGive him the title next
If not that, give me Van vs Asakura for 5 rounds somewhere in Asia. Fuck it stick it on that China card
I got Hendo vs Shogun feelings.Gave me flashbacks of Chuck vs Wanderlei and Forrest vs Bonnar
Exactly also I think if Kai can catch pantoja. The fight between Van and KKK would be a more exciting matchup. Pantoja could likely just take Van down and punish him.Van very likely beats KKF. Not so sure about Pantoja.
Holyyyyy how many thank Jesus was that in a row?
