God damnit, I missed this fight. I was skyping with Mike and didn't realize I hit "start fight". I can tell you this was not a Flash KO though, as Fedor was life-less at the end of this one. Fedor is strong, but after this loss, I would be giving him a complete overhaul if he were my guy (you hear that Miesha, I'm comin' for you - pun intended).
