Chin Check - 173 (Recap) - a podcast by Kevin Scott

The weekend got cracking with another 'Bellator' card, and with '256' we also get the 'Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix' underway. 

The main card got off with a real controversial decision win for Dan Moret as it had looked like Goiti Yamauchi control had got him the fight.

Cat Zingano really kicked the doors off with her flawless performance and great armbar win.

Ádám Borics and Liz Carmouche gave dominant showings to make their divisions take note.

And in the Main Ryan Bader turned the fight around in the third to really walk away with a clear decision win and move one step closer to getting his title back. 

Then we have our second outing on 'ABC' for 'UFC', on a card that faced some ups & downs but gave us some exceptional performances.

It had been six months since his last fight and he dropped a division, BUT Impa Kasanganay showed great movement and got the night rolling with a no hooks, rear naked choke!!!

Mackenzie Dern used her fast hands to get in close, hits a takedown and added a new arm to her collection.

Will Julian Marquez survived a scare at the end of the first, to open up the second fast. He lands a BIG right, which allowed him to get the rear naked on Sam Alvey, who went out fighting, like the smiling badman, he is!

Jarjis Danho was like Impa, I've been out five years and look what I can do, as he lands the right hammer for an emphatic return!

And Mateusz Gamrot showed us what all that buzz was about and gets a second round stoppage!!!

In the Main event, he turned things around in twenty one days, which is impressive and Kevin Holland looked very good on the feet. BUT, Marvin Vettori was focused on one outcome and he utilised his wrestling to take Holland down, control and get that win!

So, let's break it all down, in today's (ep 173) @ChinCheckPod 

- Bellator 256: Bader vs. Machida 2

- UFC on ABC 2: Vettori vs. Holland
