<p>In this one Darnell gets the much better looking swings going but not much landed really. Darnell is by far the better fighter in his career but this fight he didn&#8217;t really get loose.</p>
<p>At the end of the day, not much of a fight but it&#8217;s great to see this team with not much other than playing spoiler left, standing up for each other in back to back situations.</p>
