MMA SQUARED: Best of 2020, The Before Times

We started the year meeting that lovable scamp, Petey the Picogram. Petey was on hand for UFC 247 and kept us all in suspense!

The fight happened and Jones defended his title with a controversial UD. The champ later took to Twitter to explain how clear cut the decision actually was.

Tyson Fury stopped Deontay Wilder in a stunning performance in their heavyweight title rematch. I had to double check, but this indeed happened ten years ago in The Before Times.

Zhang Weill and Joanna Jedrzejczyk put on the fight of the year, scrambling across the globe to outrun an emerging global pandemic.

The Coronavirus emerged as the story of 2020, claiming over 1.7m lives as of this writing. A fearless leader cut through the bullshit and made a bold proclamation:

Thanks for taking the wild ride that is MMA in 2020 with me. I’ll be back Wednesday with the saga of Fight Island. Take care of yourself.
