UFC 185 results 

Yesteday UFC185 took place live from the American Airlines arena in Dallas Texas. This card was headlined by a Light Heavyweight title bout in which Champion Anthony Pettis defended his title against Rafiel Dos Anjos. The co main event was a women’s strawweight bout where the first ever Womens strawweight champion Carla Esparza defended her title for the first time against Joanna Jedrzejczyk.

Now I didn’t order this PPV nor was I able to keep up with results online and I gotta say I’m disappointed in myself because according to social media this was one of the best cards the UFC has seen in awhile. Not only that but both titles changed hands tonight.

Jedrzejczyk dominated a highly praised Esparza. She finished Esparza via TKO with 42 secs remaining in the 2nd round. According to many Jedrzejczyk made Esparza look like am amateur in the cage and even Esparza said she didn’t feel like herself out there. Maybe the nerves of a fist time title defense got to her. Who knows but either way now that Jedrzejczyk is the new champion I’m sure top contender strawweights will be chomping at the bit to get a crack at her.

In the main event Pettis was definitely the favorite going into this. He usually has fancy moves and his infamous kicks are usually the deciding factor in what he does. Even with CM Punk in his corner Pettis couldn’t get the job done, because the underdog Dos Anjos out wrestled and out strook “showtime”. Dos Anjos picked up the win after all 5 rounds by unanimous decision. Now with Anjos as champion it is sure to shake up the lightweight division.

So tell me what did you guys think of this card? What was your favorite bout? Let us know in the comments.

TNA to air knockout special 

On the April 17th editon of ImpactWrestling the show will be dedicated to the knockouts divison. The title of the show will be TKO: Total Knockouts.

Let me tell you something folks, news like this makes me feel like it’s Christmas morning. The women in the knockouts divisions are something special. They’re superior athletes and some of them are the best women to ever lace up a pair of boots. If you haven’t watched anything knockout related or TNA related in general this event is the perfect day to start.

It was announced that new knockouts will debut at TKO (although no one in particular has been named in sure this will shake up the already star studded divison. Also announced we’re two matches. One of those matches being for the Knockouts title where the champion Taryn Terrell defending her title against Awesome Kong. The second match that was announced was a fatal 4 way Number 1 contenders match between Brooke Tessmatcher, Gail Kim, Angelina Love and Madison Rayne.

Based on those two matches alone I know I’m not going to want to miss this and I can tell you that if you’re a professional wrestling fan who respects women in the business just as much as the men neither are you.

Are you guys excited for this event? I know I am. What other knockout would you like to see compete? For me it would be Jessika Havok.

Remember you can catch impactwrestling on destination America every Friday at 7PT/10ET
