Probably one of the most complete fighters out there right now.

Bam is so fluid. An over the top performance. It's hard to over hype his talent.

I was ringside for this card. A full night of knockouts even on the off TV portion with the exception of Pacheco and McCumby. Solid card for sure. Wish Cafu would have put up a better fight though, but still enjoyed myself.

I'm looking forward to him knocking out pink-haired Martinez and snatching that "0" right off of him.

Another virtuoso performance by BAM...i like his array of punches from his whole arsenal. He takes control a fight, he doesn't run or hold & lay on the ropes giving a half ass effort, knowing the judges will give 12 rounds like some F a g g o t s

Jesse "Bam-PEDS" Rodriguez.

[BlackRobb]

Amazing fighter. He will dismantle Puma Martinez at 115. It's a pointless fight. Bam's next challenge is at 118 against Nakatani.

You cannot sit on the ropes against Rodriguez. That's suicidal.

Great fights from Dazn and The Ring.
