I saw these fights live. We just happened to be in Vegas that weekend. I think the fights were at Mandalay Bay iirc.

Marlon was / is a really good fighter. I had a fight promotion in New Orleans for years and he was our 145 champ and Edson Barbosa was our 155 champ. They were both with the Armory of of Florida at the time and they were having trouble getting fights out there.
