Robocop says he tried really hard to get the finish but couldn't because Duncan was too tough. Absolutely true.

Then Robocop says he wants to be the champion, so he asks Dana White and Hunter Campbell for a shot at a ranked opponent.

Robocop has body lock though and drags CLD down. CLD has a knee up though and he's trying to stand. Robocop moving to the back though! He's got one hook in as CLD turtles to defend.

Robocop is bleeding heavily from a cut on his head somewhere. I think it's above the eye. But He's in dominant position now and landing shots, now he's working for a choke. CLD not giving up the second hook but he's tired and pinned in that corner. Robocop trying to slip that arm under but CLD defending. So Robocop lands some good elbows.

A LOT of blood in there now and CLD is just sort of stuck in this spot. He's trying to stand but Robocop is staying sticky with 10 second left. Elbow from CLD before the end but it's far too little.

Robocop is 3 years older, 1 inch taller, but has a 4-inch reach disadvantage against CLD. Robocop is the underdog at +115 with the comeback on CLD at -135.

Buffer gets going and he's zipping through these intros. Crowd is hot but perhaps a bit demure from the previous fight. 

Dan Movahedi is the referee and we're off!

Robocop hits the arena and he looks like he's 1,000 years old but boy is he fun. He also appears to be in sensational shape.

CLD comes out and he's very calm. Also in tremendous shape. I'm pretty pumped for this fight.

Well that was a damn fun fight! Allen vs. Chikadze delivered some very good action and let me tell you what, this fight right here is going to keep that energy up. Robocop does not know how to be boring.
