--THE WRAP UP--
As usual the Cage Titan fighters all brought it!! The event went off without a hitch and the stream was fun to watch. The main event definitely lived up to the hype and it was very close in which I wouldn't have even been shocked if it was a draw. I personally did have Barrett winning on the scorecards and that was how 2 of the judges had it. One judge had it going for Giannetti which gave us the split.
Cage Titans did announce an upcoming battle and that will be Gerald Meuse vs. Don Shainis on September 14th for Cage Titans 67. Shout out to all the fighters for putting on a show and to Cage Titans for putting on another great event for us all to watch. Thanks for reading and stay right here as I keep you all closer to the cage.
