“W-1: Reloaded” play-by-play and commentary:

One of the commentators said, “Everyone on this card is ripped  so we know we won’t have any issues with conditioning.” (paraphrase) Seriously? Ever heard of Bobby Lashley guy?

The referee (Jorge Ortiz) was not paying attention, or for some reason just did not notice Davaun McKoy tapping out to Anthony Gravito’s kimura lock. Fortunately, Gravito was able to hang on to it, crank it a bit more and force a second tap. Hopefully, he does not cost anyone a fight here tonight.

Michael Trujillo showed some very nice striking in his pro debut win over Eric Raposo.
