Raise your hand if you read our exclusive Kaitlin Young interview on MiddleEasy from over two years ago. If your hand is raised, you can stop lying to yourself. There's no reason to lie to us at MiddleEasy. We'll still be your friend, no matter how whack you truly are. Even if you are whack, we won't tell anyone. We're all on equal grounds here, so the next time we ask you for a show of hands on an ambiguous question -- you don't have to lie to us.

Let's try this again. How many of you watched Kaitlin Young vs. Leslie Smith from last weekend's inaugural Invicta FC card? I see a few hands out there. I also see a few people that need to put on underwear and stop gobbling tubes of Pringles like the cure for the common cold is found individually wrapped in plastic at the bottom. See, we even love you too. That's why we're going to publish one of the most scraplicious MMA bouts of the year directly on MiddleEasy for your personal viewing. Sure you've probably heard of Kaitlin Young over the years, but Leslie Smith hails from the 209 and trains with the Diaz brothers at Cesar Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Although, judging from this video of her sheer brutality, I'm sure you can come to that conclusion yourself.

disappointed in Young; some counter-punchin g isn't defense.

For a second I thought Middle Easy wasn't going to give much love to Invicta FC. I'm glad I was wrong. Fun match. Leslie Smith was limping and still coming forward like a boss.

Zeus would have never written this article if I didn't post the fight video. Instead, he would have wrote an article about Tim Kennedy's dildo collection.

Lack of any defense, no head movement, no footwork, no strategy. Basically just random brawling. Is it considered great female MMA if they're not slapping or pulling hair? This fight was hideously overrated. Thanks for posting this though, so I know I can skip the rest of them too.

STFU! It was a great fight. Footwork, gameplans, and wrestling is ruining MMA.

Kaitlin could get it, on lay-away.

Strategy doesn't necessitate lay and pray you morons, look at a muay thai fighter and tell me he's throwing random. He's not, he's setting up shots he's feinting, he's moving his head... Pro boxers win by piecing apart their opponents, not throwing random and hoping it lands and leaving your chin open like an idiot. And the foot work was atrocious, it was all straight forward with no working angles.

Korean Zombie vs Leonard Garcia looked nothing like this. This looked like an amateur fight at best, more like a brawl, and these are supposed to be some of the top professionals in the world.

Actually I'll take back some of that, the one in the white shorts did move around a bit. But they look incredibly uncomfortable in all of it.
