Kron Gracie consistently doing that little front foot forward stomp thing a la Royce is one of my favorite things. #UFCTampa

It’s target practice for Cub #UFCTampa

I wondered how cub can be an underdog with all his high level experience

Cub out there hitting Gracie with the whole combo platter. I’m talking jalapeño poppers, hot wings, queso dip. Even the popcorn shrimp.

Do you guys think Kron has ever drilled a takedown? Someone should tell him this isn’t 1997

— Ben Askren (@Benaskren) October 13, 2019

Fantastic fight, but a pretty clear 30-27 Swanson in my eyes.
