Someone should remind Carvalho to keep his chin tucked and hands up. Pitbull caught the brash challenger with his right hand down. Pitbull stepped in with a mean left hook and Carvalho leaned right into it.

Yaroslav Amosov def. Logan Storley by split decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28)
Someone's 0 had to go and it was Amosov who emerged victorious in a razor-thin split decision. Storley clearly won the final round after nearly slapping on a rear-naked choke; however, the first two rounds were toss-ups. Storley would have likely won under an open scoring system, but it was Amosov who got the nod on Thursday.
