Check out how the pros reacted to Dawson vs Glenn below:
I wouldn’t be surprised if Dawson’s legs are a little heavy after holding a body triangle for that long. It’s exhausting, even when you do the conditioning for it. Glenn making RD 2 more difficult, but Dawson’s TD attacks keep coming! Beautiful work! #UFCVegas41
