Nice good action fight with two technically reasonable contenders. However, Rex was more accurate and used better techniques being able to take control of the fight from the beginning helped also for his southpaw stance and reach advantage. The stoppage in my opinion was too early since Gil looks like still solid.
Really good action and better technique by Rex, throwing lots of combinations and using his reach advantage very well. I’m willing to see more of him in the near future.
