FIGHTING 40s

Duo notch victory for the ages

- GARY HITCHCOCK

BOTH Jared Cannonier and Angela Hill upset the odds to prove they are 40 and fabulous inside the octagon.

At an age when most fighters are thinking of hanging 'em up, the American duo showed they can still hang and bang with the best of 'em as they picked up big wins at the Apex in Las Vegas.

Rather than the passing-of-the-torch moments many expected, Cannonier, who KO'd Gregory Rodrigues, and Hill, who outpointed Ketlen Souza, displayed burning desire to remain among the elite.
