      Jai fought the only fight he could to beat Breidis.

      One slip and he woulda been goneski.

      Well played Jai but i still think he looked underdone.

        Jai could have stopped this earlier. He kept backing off when he had Briedis in trouble. Disappointing fight, but the right guy won. I guess.

        Hats off to Briedis. He still has a little left in the tank.

            I did NOT like what I saw from Jai. Much too passive. Gassed when Briedis finally came forward.
            Bouncing around a bit too much, and maybe loading up too much on punches. Also.....let's not forget that Opetaia got his jaw broken early in their first fight. This fight had a mental hurdle that Opetaia needed to overcome. Maybe that would explain his passivity.

                I didn't see Breidis having ever been in trouble. There was a bit of Latvian rope-a-dope going on.

                  Jai would rather take 2 straight rights to the face than one right hook to the jaw.

                  No way was he gonna let Breidis break his jaw again!

                    Underwhelming performance from Jai. He is good but doubting how good, he should have beaten the crap out of this versionf Breidis.

                      Well, yeah, I could have put trouble in quotations, but there were times Jai could've pressed him easily.
