Purtroppo non ce l’ha fatta. Leonardo Damiani è uscito sconfitto dal match contro AJ Fletcher alle Dana White’s Contender Series.
Un epilogo che lascia l’amaro in bocca soprattutto perché l’italiano aveva iniziato nel migliore dei modi l’incontro dominando le prime fasi con uno striking solido e un ottimo tempismo negli scambi ravvicinati. Un avvio talmente positivo che aveva indotto AJ Fletcher a spostare la contesa al suolo dove ancora una volta Damiani aveva risposto presente con grande reattività.
Una volta rialzati però è arrivata la beffa con l’improvvisa ginocchiata saltata di Fletcher che è valsa all’americano vittoria per KO e contratto UFC.
WHAT. A. FINISH. 🤯
