Ilir Latifi Instagram – First of all I want to thank my family, friends, team and all the people that supported me, thank you!
When I decided to take this challenge and fight Derrick in his hometown, people thought I was crazy.
Saturday night walking in to the arena to fight Derrick Lewis, Houstons home pride, I knew this battle wasn’t going to be easy.
The crowd was there for him and even the judges…
I think I won that fight and many of the fans and viewers did too, but it is what it is… As fighters, we sacrifice and risk a lot for this sport and it’s very sad to see how they can play around with peoples work and dedication.
Hopefully in the future we will see judges and scoring system that’s made for MMA by people of real experience of the sport like fighters and trainers that have better understanding of the sport and can make better judgments. | Posted on 10/Feb/2020 22:17:37
