Great stoppage by the ref. Tadas didn´t have to take any unnecessary damage.

Tadas was backed up, seemed to stumble initially, before he turned around.

is Zavurov small enough to move down to 70 kg?

I think he can make the cut.

he really should move down then IMO. he can't keep fighting the way he has his last 2 at WW because the bigger guys will just wear him out eventually. i do believe though that Zavurov's style would translate much better if he were the bigger guy down at LW.

Yeah Enomoto and Yakovlev looked bigger than him and they had a much better reach. I´m not a big fan of weight cutting but it´s probably a good option for Zavurov. Zavurov vs Weichel and Zavurov vs Tiger would be awesome.

i was thinking Figueroa vs. Zavurov to see who should stick around/who can get back on track first but afterwards yeah those would work.

seriously Zavurov moving down would only help M-1's sweet LW roster they've got going: Weichel, Damkovsky, Taisumov, Sarnavskiy, Ivlev.

Figueroa sounds like a good first fight at LW. Drinaldo is another promising fighter in the M-1 LW division.

Yeah, I think Aleks hit him behind the ear and he got dizzy. Legit stoppage, I can´t understand how some people think it´s a fixed fight.

Thats the sweet spot. Sometimes a soft punch will wreck someone so long as they land on that sweet spot.
