Looked like Burroughs stepped out but they ruled he didn’t and then Fucundo did moments later. Challenge. Ruling was JB’s foot wasn’t entirely out. One point for JB for the step out and another for the lost challenge. Ending score was 5-3. It was that close. Alex has looked fantastic.
I feel like if Mesenbrink can be calculated with his insanity he might have a chance.

Starocci undersized and a bum knee was basically even in Free with Trent (his less good style) AB has underrated Trent but he was his own Tier (2 behind AB who was Tier 1) at 197. Add good weight and Carter rules 197 next year.
Exactly. Carter still on one leg was only about to bulk for a few weeks. Give him 8 months and a healed leg and 197 is his comfortably

I missed Burroughs vs. Facundo, but there should be some PBP for the rest of the matches.

Probably not but Mitch, in the words of Bob Seger, is young and wreckless and bold. Whereas JB has seen it all and is the wise old fox. I would not be surprised at all if Much dog himself a hole early as the old fox counters less than perfect shots several times. The second period should be Mitch's to come back, but seeing Mitch still down with a minute to go won't surprise me.
Yeah I think Burroughs is a horrible matchup for MM. Could break open/win early with counter shots

That version of JB is not beating Mitchell imo
