He took some hard shots and never stopped coming forward. I had a lot of hope in the 3rd, he dropped Villefort right at the beginning then later he caught him in the rubix and transitioned into a triangle he was close to locking up, the to the jiu claw, so close. I think Matt would have won if it had been a five rounder. He'll come back better than ever!

That was a pretty slick transition. Every now and then I get gifted a rubix, I should drill it as a setup to a triangle. As long as Horowitch gives it his all, I'll always tune in to watch him fight.

I kind of prefer the puppet master to the triangle from rubix. The Puppet is a serious control position with a lot of effective finishing options. The triangle can hard to finish when your gassed when the majority of the finishes from the puppet are low energy.

is there a link to the fight?

he's definitely one of my favorites to watch compete.

ttt for Matt!

War Matt!

Matt is a warrior! It looked like his weight cut affected him greatly.... Did they say he cut just 4 days prior to the fight???
