    Good fight!! Santiago is legit so it'll be interesting to see two black BJJ specialists go at it

    Much tougher fight for Nelson.

    Everytime I think of Santiago I think of Khalidov knocking him out from the bottom, lets see how he does in the UFC at welterweight this time after a couple of bad runs at middleweight.

    Anyway......war Gunnar!

    Santiago is perhaps the most exceptional, yet beatable guy out there. This is a great fight for Gunnar. The world is about to see what this insanely talented young man is made of.
    Fighting, writing and mood lighting.

    one of the rare instances where the replacement fighter makes the fight better than the original opponent.

    This is also true of Porier stepping in for Siver vs Swanson IMO. The London card has definitely improved through the injury replacements!
