i was wondering if you'd had any dealings with Guida.
its only the inherent wrestling bias in mma judging that gave him a win in that fight; gets out-struck for one third of the fight and spends the other two thirds desperately clinging to top position/narrowly avoiding submissions. people love his shtick but if you take away the adhd routine and tasmanian devil aesthetic you're left with a deeply average fighter.
Mike Russow, the other Chicago dude on the card, ended up getting TKO'd because he blew his wad trying to finish in the first round. he's any incredibly durable and flabby cop - not the kind of man you'd like to steal a donut from.
highlights of that card were:
TJ Grant elbowing "Handsome" Matt Wiman into the 'seeking a new nickname' ranks:
and Anthony Pettis incorporating another off-the-cage strike:
finished Cerrone with a shin to the liver too:
