‘TUF 21’ Recap: Episode 8

Last week, Vicente Luque scored a third-round submission of American Top Team captain Nathan Coy, giving the Blackzilians a 200-50 lead on the scoreboard and a 6-1 record on the season. The Blackzilians’ gym will once again host this week’s matchup, the final 50-point bout.

Blackzilians owner Glenn Robinson wastes no time selecting his next fighter, calling upon mustachioed Brazilian Felipe Portela in the locker room just moments after Luque’s victory. Robinson calls the 27-year-old one of the most improved fighters on the team and says he expects Portela to “shock a lot of people,” regardless of the opponent.
