Martin Day was supposed to fight Steven Koslow for the title, but Koslow pulled out for an unknown reason. Ramon Taveras stepped in to take the title fight.
During the Face-offs, Ramon Taveras didn’t t not shook hands with Martin, instead whispering some “My City Baby, This shit stays right here.” – shit referring to the belt which as outrages many in Hawaii. We don’t care how hammah of a fighter you are Ramon, but you should learn how to respect opponent.”
Although there wasn’t a cosmic justice in Ramon’s attitude, Martin Day still showed respect and accepted defeat like a real man. in the end Martin Day posted on his Instagram congratulating the winner:

“This game has the highest of highs and the lowest lows. One small miscalculation can cost dearly. It’s high stakes chess and we play willingly.

Congratulations to @catch_deez_hands, he hit me with a beautiful body kick early and another deadly hook to the liver that almost put me down, I tried my best to hide it and tie him up but he did a great job capitalizing and grabbing my neck for the finish. Congratulations to him and his team.
