I was pulling for JonFer but was impressed with Rivera's resolve. He got clipped with a nice, short shot to the head and did what he had to in order to survive. He also made some nice adjustments through the fight. Michel also seems like a decent kid.

Showed some veteran holding tactics after getting clipped ala Floyd Mosley. Even was grabbing at Fernandez's legs out of necessity lol

I liked what I saw from Rivera. He faced some adversity, but overcame it and got the job done in impressive fashion. Fernandez was a major step up as well.
