Wow. Just... wow.
Thomas Almeida is for real. In front of a partisan Brazilian crowd the 19-0 bantamweight prospect was under tremendous pressure to deliver at UFC Fight Night 77 action tonight (Sat., Nov. 7, 2015) inside Ibirapuera Gymnasium in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The fight began with spirited exchanges on both sides, with Anthony Birchak looking to carry the momentum of his upset win over Joe Soto at UFC Fight Night 68 into another battle where he was the clear underdog.
The aggressive Birchak landed early and often, seemingly walking through the strikes of the devastating Muay Thai practitioner.
