After seeing two of my favorite fights get knocked out today, this has made me smile....

[KESSLER]

Awesome, I hope the fight is gonna ****ing happen!

[Gareth Ivanovic]

That little exchange of words before the weigh in yesterday must have worked. Now they have agreed on 50-50. I thought B-Hop would get more, but Joe deserves his biggest payday.
