Rampage looked SHARP tonight. broken hand or not, I’m glad he didn’t give up any takedowns nor did he rush in. Hamill is hard dude to finish.
Was anyone else impressed with Rampage’s striking tonight? His (short) time with Golden Glory turned an already impressive puncher into something better and definitely seems to have added more to his arsenal
