Chris Horodecki couldn't have drawn a worse opponent than Anthony Njokuani for his WEC debut --in Njokuani's past two WEC fights he won "Knockout of the Night"-- and history repeated itself.
The first round began fairly with Horodecki trying to close the distance with the taller and bigger Njokuani. Horodecki tried to change up his tactics by going for a double leg takedown but Anthony easily stuffed it and tossed Chris to the mat. Horodecki worked his way to his feet and tried to disengage but Njokuani gave chase and threw a head kick that caught his retreating opponent flush.
Once Horodecki hit the canvas it was all over as Anthony unleashed a torrent of strikes that caused Steve Mazzagatti to end the fight.

Horodecki looked just tiny in there. he should drop to featherweight. he can do it. his body was pretty damn soft there tonight.

part of it is that Njokuani is HUGE, but yeah he should drop weight if it is practical

We had breakfast with Anthony at UFC 106 and he is about my height (6-1). Large man to make 155, or maybe he just makes me feel bad about my 60 extra pounds.
