I never thought someone died after any KO, not even when Chandler kicked Tony, or Masvidal jumped into Askren. So many different brutal KO's from people going stiff, or going limp, or seizing up, and rarely ever somebody takes serious damage or dies. Every time someone gets KO'd bad I read these comments "I thought he died" and I dont get it. KOs are part of MMA. Not even Ngannou has ended someone yet, and that guy hit people with hammerfists after they were out cold.

If 2024 was the year for Sean Strickland after bad KO to Pierra, why not Mitchell 2025? He's marketable. I hope he dedicates himself to technique because he has all the intangibles imo. 145 needs bodies. 2 fights away possibly.
