This fight is a MUST to watch. It was excellent from the technical point of view.
Josh in spite of his low experience probed to be a really good kick boxer. He totally dominated the fight and almost destroyed the left leg of his opponent. His moves and coordination are perfect permitting him dodging almost each of the shot intended by the French kick boxer. I really enjoyed the fight.
