“I’m so proud of the fighters tonight and everything that they put on the line, the crowd was great, it was such a great show… We’ve got to go back to the drawing board, I’ve got to look at things, I’ve got to look at the whole card again – I thought the heavyweight fight was great, I would have liked to see more power-punches, maybe a different mix-up in matches.
