It was amazing. It was so good that they got on primetime CBS for the Nashville card, which ended up being maybe the most disastrous major MMA event of all time. I watched it at a bar in college and there were quite a few people there who had never seen MMA before, and came away thinking it was the dumbest sport they had ever had the misfortune to be subjected to. In no small part thanks to Lawal, Aoki, and Shields putting together three of the most legendary snoozefests in MMA history.

Love that post fight respect. . . It's a war it's hard not to respect someone taking everything you've got and still walking forward.
Man such a great entertaining fight. Nick's punch combos were so devastating, Daley had no idea what was coming at him with the mix of head and body shots. That right hook was so sneaky, it's like Daley's body knew it was rocked but his head was on a 2 second delay before he toppled over

Nick never threw with knockout intent but that right hook that finished Daley was vicious & Daley definitely never saw it coming. The power all came from the placement & flowing with his punches so well. The body work laid the foundation for that finish though, incredible work!
